Item Description
Some of the finest quality and diverse Quartz specimens in the world come from the Goboboseb Mountain in Namibia. Truly most of these specimens are labeled as Brandberg, but the actual pieces from from the mountain which is about 8 miles away from there. Here we have a classic Amethyst crystal with colorless Quartz zones The piece has top luster, with water clear transparency in areas, plus it is about as sharp a Quartz crystal gets. This is one of the last specimens that Rich Kosnar personally purchased for his collection.
