Item Description
Beautiful Amethyst specimen from Brandberg, with multiple deep-purple phantoms encased within a lustrous, gemmy 4 cm crystal. It sits on a base of smaller, very attractive Amethysts, Quartz, and Felspar. Interestingly, the large Amethyst actually has some overgrowths of Hyapite Opal on the termination. A few minor dings have little effect on the beauty and aesthetics of this miniature.
