Description
Add a touch of natural artistry to your collection with these amethyst and agate towers, each offering a one-of-a-kind display of mineral beauty. Both towers are expertly polished to showcase a blend of translucent agate and vibrant amethyst, with internal features that make each piece truly unique.
One tower stands out with a stunning drusy layer—a surface covered in tiny, sparkling quartz crystals—set over classic botryoidal formations in the center. Botryoidal refers to the rounded, bubble-like shapes formed by mineral growth, and in this piece, the effect is both eye-catching and tactile. The drusy surface catches the light, creating a shimmering effect that adds extra dimension and sparkle to the tower.
The other tower is equally impressive, featuring a unique internal crystal formation visible within the stone. This internal structure gives the piece a sense of depth and intrigue, inviting closer examination from every angle. Both towers display vibrant flashes of color, with natural rainbows appearing when the light hits just right—an effect caused by internal fractures or inclusions that refract light.
These towers are perfect for collectors, enthusiasts, or anyone who appreciates the intricate processes that create such stunning mineral specimens. Their tall, polished form makes them ideal for display on a shelf, desk, or as a centerpiece in any mineral collection. The combination of amethyst and agate provides a harmonious blend of color and texture, with each tower offering its own unique story through its natural features.
Each tower is sold individually, so you can select the one that best fits your style or collection. With only two available—each with its own remarkable characteristics—these amethyst and agate towers are a special find for any lover of natural minerals.

About Amethyst
Amethyst is a stunning purple variety of quartz, with the chemical formula SiO2. Its color is caused by trace amounts of iron and is influenced by factors like exposure to natural radiation and heat. Amethyst is found in various locations worldwide, including Brazil, Uruguay, Zambia, and the United States. It often forms in geodes, where it can grow in various habits, such as:
Druzy: A coating of tiny crystals.
Geode: A hollow rock lined with crystals.
Enhydro: A crystal with liquid inside.
Phantom: A crystal with a “phantom” of an earlier growth stage.

About Agate
Agate is classified as a cryptocrystalline variety of quartz, meaning its crystals are too small to be seen with the naked eye. Its crystal growth habit is typically botryoidal or concentric, forming in layers within cavities or fractures in rocks. Agate’s unique banding and color variations make it highly sought after for use in cabochons, which are polished, domed gemstones without facets. The intricate patterns and colors of agate are showcased beautifully in cabochon form, making them popular for jewelry and ornamental purposes. If you want to learn more about agate, click this link.
