Item Description

Goboboseb matrix amethyst specimens of this outstanding quality are very uncommon and desirable. A beautiful, 4.5 cm, doubly terminated crystal is elegantly set on the basalt matrix. The gemmy, water-clear crystal has a striking offset termination, gorgeous variable grape-purple color saturation with nifty chevron forms and lightly frosted faces. Every turn presents a different aspect to this very aesthetic 360-degree miniature. Complete all-around and very nearly pristine, with only the most trivial of termination bruising. A very choice example from the Charlie Key dealer stock and valued at $750.
