Agate Purple Bookends

Even before polishing to its reflective shine, the sumptuous colour of this purple and violet agate would have been irresistible for any interior. Agate is known for its gorgeous striping tones, but the myriad of lush purples in this piece is truly stunning. This eye catching agate geode has been buffed to a high gloss shine to ensure that even its palest the amethyst shades are at their best.

The different colours seen here are produced by the varying chemical compositions of each layer of siliceous mineral laid down to create the agate. The outer layer is forced to dull and toughen as the nodule begins to form. Whilst a beautiful interior is always hoped for, the appearance of any agate is only revealed when it is split, and revealed in all its glory. This captivating piece will bring beauty and colour to any stylish room.
