Amethyst (scepters)

Item Description

This specimen is a great small cabinet size piece consisting of good quality, sharp, gemmy, prismatic, lilac prisms of Amethyst showing slight scepter habits and measuring up to 2.7 cm which are sitting on matrix. The biggest crystal was difficult to photograph, because it actually wraps around the matrix as the end tapers down like a tadpole, and it curves around the side. This piece is remarkable for Bolivia as it features a type of crystallization that is virtually unheard of for this country. This is one of the better pieces from the find for quality, and it's worth picking up.
