Exceptional 2-piece flame set made from ocean agate...

This exceptional 2-piece natural stone set combines two impressive materials in an artfully polished flame shape: a fascinating Ocean Agate flame and an expressive flame made of petrified wood. Although both pieces share the same dynamic base form, they differ clearly in color, texture and character. The Ocean Agate Flame captivates with an extraordinarily detailed pattern in brown, cream, white, and delicate blue-lilac areas. Fine natural motifs, cloudy transitions and varied textures spread across the entire surface, giving the stone an almost landscape-like appearance. The petrified wood flame forms a strong contrast. Warm reds, rusts, oranges and browns meet partially transparent areas and darker natural inclusions. The intense coloring and the lively inner structure make this piece a particularly striking one-of-a-kind piece. Through the elaborate flame-cut with its curved, spirally ascending contours, numerous facets arise on which light is reflected differently. The high-gloss polish brings the colors and the natural drawings of both stones especially vividly to life. Together, the two flames form an exceptional ensemble of Ocean Agate and petrified wood, which is excellent as a high-quality natural-stone decoration, for a mineral collection, or as an impressive eye-catcher. Two completely different works of natural art in one special set – a detailed Ocean Agate flame and a color-intensive flame of petrified wood, each with a unique natural pattern. Extraordinary Quartz Hand Polished Petrified Wood, agate Weight: 2100.55 g Treatment: None Origin: Madagascar It is a fossil wood dating back 200 million years, all parts from a log or branches have been silicified, meaning that organic components were little by little replaced by silicon in the form of jasper, chalcedony and more rarely opal. Without the organic parts, all the living matter was replaced by stone: there are growth rings, cell separations, almost like worm cracks. Its features are those of the mineral that would have pseudo-transformed the wood: the silicon. And that’s what we call a "petrified wood" in the common language. The disclaimer about the healing properties as previously given : It is believed that certain gemstones and minerals have beneficial health and spiritual properties.
