This is a Chevron Amethyst Bas relief Crystal Skull carving. Such a cool little piece! Shown next to a US quarter coin for size comparison. It will stand upright on its own, or can be laid down flat. The skull actually has a cross with 4 arms of equal length (not sure which style of cross specifically - perhaps a kind of budded cross?) carved across its face - which can look subtle because of the formations and patterns in the stone. The top has been left mostly natural, with some of the Amethyst points/tips visible. The whole thing has a kind of semi-matte finish vs. glossy. The back side has the Chevron patterns standing out quite nicely!
There are a few tiny organic inclusions here and there that you may be able to feel subtly as you run your fingers over them. ALL inclusions present are 100% natural parts of the stone. Much nicer than the photos can show! Check out how it works with subtle energies below.
It weighs about 1.5oz and measures 2" inches wide/long (side to side) X 1 1/4" inches tall at the tallest point X about 5/8" inch thick at the thickest point. Code-81422-20453
