Item Description

The Anahi Mine of Bolivia has recently produced some stunning large amethyst specimens, as singles and very large clusters. You don't see too many cute small cabinets, such as this. These crystals have the look of amethysts from Brandberg, Namibia, in that instead of an allover purple hue, the purple is in beautiful blushes or zones inside the crystals The terminations faces are lustrous and lightly frosted, while the side faces look like cut glass. The sidecar crystal is a super accent. This excellent and showy piece is nearly pristine, with only trivial termination and side wear. Certainly very modest detractions.. A very highly representative, smaller specimen from this well-known locale. Comes with a custom-made lucite base valued at $100.
