Item Description

Seven sceptered to partially sceptered amethyst crystals are noted on this impressive and sculptural large 360-degree jackstraw cluster of of glassy, gemmy, blush-purple crystals from a New Find at famed Piedra Parada (Las Vigas). The striking large doubly terminated scepter is 7.2 cm and there are three more doubly terminated crystals on the imposing large plate. Complete all-around and pristine. Specimens of this size and quality with sceptered crystals are typically priced at $4000-5000 at major shows. BETTER in person, as the gemminess and luster subdues the blush-purple color. The fine video shows the true hue of the crystals.
