Item Description
This showy and excellent CABINET amethyst specimen from the La Sirena Mine at Guanajuato, Mexico is distinctively different, than most you see from any other locality. The sharp, amethyst terminations are composed of water-clear, coloress quartz! And the rich sprinkling of lustrous, colorless, flattened, calcite rhombs is a super accent. Looking down onto the crystals gives a surreal phantom-like look, with the amethyst inside of the quartz. This striking large piece is essentially pristine, with only trivial periphery wear. Fine material from this famous locale. Ex Consie Prince Collection. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
