Item Description
Goboboseb Amethysts are well-known for their beauty and presentation. This striking single crystal, on matrix, is a vibrant, phantomed purple, and the floating red inclusions of Hematite add a terrific contrast. The luster on this 5.8 cm crystal is excellent, and the 2.1 cm sceptre makes an impressive termination for both beauty and size. This small cabinet piece is a very fine example of this renowned locality, and the 360-degree view makes the aesthetics even finer. VERY RICH color, the deep grape juice shade we all want. Valued $2500 for such a colorful and balanced crystal on a nice matrix. From the large worldwide collection of historical minerals, of George Elling of New Jersey.
