Item Description
A striking, large, pretty variable lavender, sharply terminated amethyst scepter from this remote region of Kenya. The dramatic elongated skeletal cleft and clay inclusions on the primary viewing face are super accents. A couple of spots of minor edge wear are noted on the front. Contacting against other crystals is noted on the lower front and contacting and a large ding are noted on the back, but are out-of-sight. Certainly nothing to detraction. This area has recently produced some stunning amethyst specimens and this is a fine example.
