Quartz (Var: Amethyst)
Amatitlan, Mun. de Zumpango del Rio, Guerrero, Mexico
Small Cabinet, 8.1 x 7.9 x 4.5 cm
SOLD
A superb, perfectly-balanced spray of amethyst crystals from the famous Guerrero locality. This specimen is MUCH better in person. In various indoor fluorescent lighting it can be either a really dark purple or, as shown, a more brilliant dual-toned piece in "normal lighting" of sun-equivalent. The crystals on this specimen show the classic purple phantoms inside, with transparent tips of clear quartz, that make these amethysts amongst the most sought-after in the world. For its size and 360-degree perfection, this is among the best I have seen for sale in the price range. 8.1 x 7.9 x 4.5 cm
