A magnificent example of scepter growth from the Brandberg mountains. This would be a $3500 specimen if it didn't have jsut that darned small chip on one of the side faces of the termination to the right as shown. It is not visible from the viewing side, so the crystal is truly impressive for the price, if you can live with a ding on the far side. Visually, this is incredible...you seldom see such intense purple amethyst from here, let alone as a scepter!
