Description

Beautiful dendritic agate sphere full of tiny geode openings - this 810-gram globe combines soft chalcedony blues with finely branched dendrites, giving the surface an almost cosmic landscape.

The texture varies from powder blue and grey to cream and light sand, with translucent agate bands in various places. An ideal object for lovers of texture, mineralogy and aesthetics.
