Las Vigas, Veracruz, Mexico
Cabinet, 10.0 x 7.0 x 5.6 cm
Ex. Richard Hauck
SOLD
Judging by the old dealer label with it, this is probably one of the earlier finds brought to market from this now-classic locality. It features a pristine 7.7 cm, doubly-terminated amethyst perched delicately on a thin shard of matrix overgrown with small quartz crystals! The piece is actually a floater, believe it or not, now that I look closely. The two smaller crystals in the main cluster have old breaks/reheals at the tips, but are terminated. The aesthetics here are amazing, and it is an unlikely survivor when you consider the long trip this has taken to get here today from these remote mountains of Mexico.
