Item Description

A highly unusual amethyst-colored quartz crystal from SOUTH DAKOTA. We had never seen before. The former collector labelled this as rose quartz but it is more lavender in color, although either varietal name might apply and we have not done chemistry on it in any case. Beautiful quartz from an unusual locale. From the specialist rares and Northwest collection of Andrew Micklancic
