Item Description

Sharply terminated, intergown, amethyst crystals form a very attractive two-sided specimen from this well-known granite with fluorite quarry. Backlighting of the lustrous and translucent crystals reveal pretty lavender cloudy interiors strikingly accented with the smoky quartz edge phantoms. Complete all-around and nearly pristine. One tip is very gently bruised and the noted basal periphery wear on all sides, where other crystals once lay, is essentially pristine. The base has been sawed to enhance the display views. Choice self-collected amethyst from the Paco Gutierrez Collection.
