Amethyst (scepters and reverse scepters)

Item Description

This specimen is a great small cabinet size piece consisting of good quality, sharp, gemmy, semi-lustrous, prismatic, purple color scepter, "reverse" scepter and simple prisms of Amethyst measuring up to 1.0 cm associated with white/colorless, modified rhombohedra of Calcite on matrix.
