Largest Known Quartz Chalcedony Stalactite — 58.4lbs of Natural Sparkling Crystal Architecture | Museum-Grade Specimen
$35,000.00
Behold a true geological masterpiece — a monumental 58.4-pound quartz-encrusted chalcedony stalactite unlike anything currently available on the global market. Measuring 19.5 inches long × 12 inches wide × 9 inches tall, this breathtaking formation represents the absolute pinnacle of natural crystal architecture.
Formed over tens of thousands of years deep within a subterranean cavity, layer upon layer of translucent chalcedony built the intricate stalactitic framework you see today. Eventually, a coating of sparkling druzy quartz blanketed every surface, transforming the structure into a natural sculpture that glistens under even the softest light.
This specimen’s sheer scale — combined with its complete, undamaged stalactitic columns and uniform drusy coverage — makes it one of the largest and finest examples known to exist.
No other piece over 10 lbs of this material has been documented for sale anywhere online, placing this at the top of its class worldwide.
✨ Highlights
• Weight: 58.4 lbs (26.5 kg) — museum scale
• Dimensions: 19.5″ × 12″ × 9″
• Composition: Quartz over Chalcedony stalactite cluster
• Origin: Indonesia or Maharashtra, India — both renowned for rare chalcedony cave formations
• Condition: Natural and intact; no major repairs or restoration
• Luster: Exceptional sparkle under light; would display beautifully on pedestal or acrylic base (not included)
⸻
🏛️ Rarity & Provenance
Pieces exceeding 25 lbs are virtually nonexistent in today’s market — most are broken during extraction or shipping. This 58-lb formation survived fully intact, with complex branching growth and pristine drusy coverage. It stands as a geological treasure suitable for museum acquisition, gallery display, or high-end private collection.
