You were right to imagine that I'm not a rocks-and-goblins type.
My friend's boyf makes his living selling geological hocus-pocus on the internet and so her home is filled with ammonites, spheres of polished stone, rose-quartz hearts and glow-in-the-dark skulls, as well as pieces of plastic bonsai tree he uses to add a little “context” to his marketing images.
It would drive me mad.
But he generously allowed me to select a piece I like from the collection and this is it.
I kind-of want a little resin-model Obelix to stand next to it brimming with pride.
