Item Description
A surreal large 8.0 cm crystal crowns this dramatic and rare large amethyst scepter from this obscure Bahia, Brazil locale. The glassy, doubly terminated scepter is transparent to translucent and has pretty variable purple color. All sides of the frosted scepter have striking skeletal and cavernous features and some sides have incredible preferential iron oxide coatings. Adding even more exotic quality is that the frosted glassy stalk is partially etched! It resembles Brandberg, Namibia material, but it's not. Amethyst from here is RARELY on the market. Ex. Larry Conklin Collection. Valued at $600-750 for size, uniqueness and rarity. A visually impressive large 360-degree amethyst scepter.
