Do any rocks appear, as perfect oval shapes due to natural events (lose rocks in the ocean floor can be smooth) but I mean a rock attached to a surface, not a lose one that is in water, a rock, attached/embedded in other rock?

Smooth, like a tic-tac shape, a sphere, or rectangle, or any symmetrical shape, polished to a shine, naturally?

You’re asking if a rock embedded in or attached to another rock—like part of a solid formation—can naturally form a perfect, symmetrical, smooth, polished shape (e.g., a tic-tac, oval, or any other shape) without human cutting, just from natural processes. It’s a cool question—let’s dig in.

Short Answer
No, rocks embedded in other rock don’t typically form perfect, symmetrical, smooth, and polished shapes like a tic-tac naturally. Loose rocks in water (e.g., ocean pebbles) can get smoothed and rounded by erosion, but attached or embedded ones face different forces. Perfect symmetry and polish almost always need human hands—nature’s too chaotic for that level of precision in solid rock.

Closest you’ll get is a weathered nodule or crystal with facets, but it won’t be polished or perfectly oval without a lapidary’s touch. Ocean rocks prove nature can smooth loose stuff, but attached ones stay rough and wild.
