Item Description
Glassy and transparent amethyst crystals with pretty variable purple color intensity and lightly frosted faces form an old-time and aesthetic cabinet cluster from a classic South Carolina locality - Due West. The crystals are up to about 4.0 cm tall and they have very nifty phantoms. In great shape, overall, with just as few gently bruised terminations. Some of the finest Eastern USA amethysts have come from Due West. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock. He valued this fine piece at $500, five or more years ago. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON.
