Item Description

Rare! Fine amethyst specimens are very uncommon from the famous mines at Naica. This a striking and beautiful, 360-degree specimen of a jackstraw cluster of glassy amethyst points of varying sizes, with a purple blush inside each one, and fine glassy luster. The amethysts rest on a brilliant, metallic-gray, galena cube. The amethyst crystals reach 3.8 cm. Nearly pristine, with only super-trivial bruising and periphery wear. A real stunner for Naica. An older, rare and super combination piece out of the Dick Heck Collection. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!
