Will I receive this exact mushroom?

Yes. This is a one-of-a-kind hand-carved piece and every photo shows the exact mushroom you will receive, at 0.76 lbs and 4.48" H x 2.34" Dia.

Where does it come from?

Agate from Matabeleland South Province, Zimbabwe, hand-carved in Zimbabwe through an artisan network. It reached us through an existing collection rather than new extraction.

No. A great deal of agate on the market is dyed in bright blues, pinks and greens. This piece is undyed, which is why the banding reads in crisp greys, creams and near-black.

It is the smallest of this group at 0.76 lbs and 4.48 inches tall, with a slim 2.34 inch cap. A shelf or desk piece rather than a statement object.

Does it stand on its own?

Yes. The base is flat and it stands unaided on a level surface.

How should I care for it?

Wipe with a soft cloth. Water and mild soap are safe at Mohs 6.5 to 7. Keep it out of prolonged direct sunlight.

What does a crystal grade (A, AA, or AAA) actually mean?

Crystal grades reflect visual quality within a single batch. Grade A is standard quality with typical inclusions. Grade AA shows stronger color saturation, cleaner surface, and tighter sizing. Grade AAA represents the top 10 to 15 percent of any batch: exceptional clarity, consistent color, and minimal surface variation. At Beyond Bohemian, grades are assessed by Paul Oliver at point of purchase.

Will I receive the exact piece shown, or one chosen from your stock?

For bulk listings sold by weight or piece count, you receive pieces from the same batch shown in the photos. Each piece is hand-selected at the time of packing. For unique specimens listed individually, you receive the exact piece photographed. The listing will specify which applies.

How do I know this crystal is ethically sourced?

Beyond Bohemian traces each stone as far up the supply chain as possible and is transparent when that tracing has limits. We work with small-scale operations and family-run suppliers wherever we can verify fair compensation. You can ask about any specific piece and we will tell you what we know and what we do not.

In Short

This is an A-grade Agate crystal mushroom, hand-carved in Zimbabwe from Matabeleland South agate. Agate is banded chalcedony that fills rock cavities layer by layer, so carving across the growth sequence turns those layers into visible stripes. The exact piece pictured stands 4.48 inches tall with a 2.34 inch diameter and weighs 0.76 pounds at Mohs 6.5 to 7, natural and untreated. It is the smallest of this group and came to us through an existing collection rather than new extraction.

Agate is banded chalcedony, a microcrystalline quartz that fills cavities in volcanic and sedimentary rock. Silica-rich fluid enters the void and deposits in successive layers, which is why agate reads as stripes rather than as a single mass of colour.

This piece comes from Matabeleland South Province in southern Zimbabwe. A carved form like this mushroom cuts across the original banding, so the pattern you see is a section through the stone's growth history rather than its outer surface.

This mushroom reached us through an existing collection rather than new extraction.

Agate is worked with for steadiness and balance, the unglamorous kind that holds a routine together. It is traditionally linked to the root chakra.

If that resonates, a small piece like this suits a desk or a bedside table where it stays within reach.

These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.
