Amethyst Geode

Most geologists enjoy geodes. However, the general public has a love affair with them. They are delighted and amazed that an uninteresting rock can contain a beautiful cluster of gemmy crystals, or a colorful lining of banded agate, or both of those in the same cavity. Broken open, or sawn and polished, people who have never taken a geology course buy thousands of tons of geodes each year. They buy them because they enjoy them. These spectacular sawn and polished amethyst geodes can serve as bookends, or as addition to home or office decor.
