Item Description
Amethyst included with hematite from Thunder Bay is a Canadian classic and this is a fine and showy small cabinet from a recent find. The uniform pretty purple color saturation and intensity are excellent on this fine plate. The crystals are gemmy and highly lustrous and the hematite "freckles" and preferentially tinted areas are really a cute accent. The interior is pristine except for one trivial bruise on this excellent 360-degree piece. Ex A.K. Siltamaki Collection (mine owner), so you know this is a good one.
