Item Description
This specimen is a great miniature size piece consisting of super quality, sharp, gemmy, highly lustrous, prismatic, light purple color "reverse" scepter crystals of Amethyst measuring up to 8 mm sitting atop white/colorless, modified rhombohedra of Calcite on matrix. This piece is remarkable for Bolivia as it features a type of crystallization that is virtually unheard of from Bolivia. This is one of the nicer pieces from the find for quality, aesthetics and overall appeal.
