Mined from: Mamuju Regency, West Sulawesi Province, Sulawesi Island, Indonesia Description: This one of a kind Grape Agate mineral specimen from Indonesia features a dense covering of rounded botryoidal formations in soft purple, lavender, grey, pale green, and off-white tones. Colour shifts across the specimen from more purple-heavy areas to cooler green-grey sections, with a few cream to yellowish patches adding contrast. The surface is highly textured from all angles, with small cavities, layered clusters, and overlapping globular growths that give it strong visual depth and a natural sculptural form. Grape Agate is the trade name used for botryoidal aggregates of amethystine quartz or chalcedony from the Mamuju region of West Sulawesi, Indonesia. Despite the name, the material is not considered a true banded agate. Its rounded formations are made from fine, radially grown quartz crystals, which produce the familiar grape-like surface. Purple is the best-known colour, while green specimens and mixed purple-green examples such as this one are less common. Spiritually, Grape Agate is commonly associated with calm thinking, emotional balance, intuition, and steady personal growth. Purple material is often linked with reflection and spiritual awareness, while green areas are associated with stability and renewal. These are traditional beliefs rather than scientifically established properties. Quantity: 1pcWith this product, you will get the actual stone in the photograph. Show more
