This is a life size Agate GEODE crystal skull. Shown next to standard sized 12oz/355ml soda can for size comparison. This is approximately the size of a human teenager.
It has has super sparkly crystalline formations all throughout, some of which have "windows" of higher clarity in them. It is FULL shimmery areas and little rainbows that show up as you move the stone around in your hands. Golden orange HEMATITE veils are scattered throughout. Very interesting earth tone matrix is present in the top of the head, and around the lower jaw. Subtle pale blue-grey Agate inclusions are mixed in around the left side of the head and face, with a cool darker strip running through the middle of the underside of the head! It picks up slightly different colors depending on the lighting (natural vs. fluorescent) and background it is against (light vs. dark).
The level of detail throughout is just beautiful. Each time you look at this one, you'll find a new and cool formation to focus on. One of a kind and super energetic! Much nicer in person than any photo could ever show - I guarantee it.
The stone does have a few small organic spots here and there that were close to the surface as the stone was polished. They can resemble small notches fine lines, shallow indents, etc. ALL inclusions present in this piece come from 100% natural formations in the stone.
It weighs about 9lbs 3.5oz / 4.180kgs and measures approximately 7 7/8" inches long X about 4 5/8" inches wide at the widest point X 5 3/4" inches tall. Code-022924-21612
