The Dolphin - Museum worthy display.

Dolphin shaped agatized coral half with incredible natural features throughout. This piece showcases a beautiful transition of blue botryoidal chalcedony with an opal coating and areas of micro druzy, along with a distinct solo druzy pocket and a striking mix of amber, clear, and black agate. The contrast and crystal development make it a standout display piece from every angle.

These exceptionally rare Agatized corals formed about 25 to 30 million years ago when Tampa Bay was covered by warm shallow seas. In deep marine pockets, silica replaced the original coral structure and created chalcedony in remarkable blue and black tones that occur almost exclusively in underwater deposits. 

Some specimens contain opal, drusy quartz, or trace minerals and may fluoresce under ultraviolet light, reflecting the unique chemistry of their formation (see this specimens specific characteristics below).

All photos and videos are shown without editing or color enhancement so what you see is exactly what you receive, and every specimen is securely packaged and shipped via USPS or UPS for dependable delivery.

This is fossilized coral that has been ethically sourced. No modern ecosystem coral was harmed during collection.
