Small Cabinet, 5.8 x 3.7 x 2.0 cm
SOLD
This specimen is a great small cabinet size piece consisting of super quality, sharp, gemmy, highly lustrous, prismatic, lilac "reverse" scepter and simple crystals of Amethyst measuring up to 2.0 cm sitting atop white/colorless, modified rhombohedra of Calcite on matrix. This piece is remarkable for Bolivia as it is from an "Alpine-type" locality, and features a type of crystallization that is virtually unheard of from Bolivia. Ex. Brian Kosnar.
