Description

A beautiful cluster of delicate light purple amethyst crystals in the “flower” style for which these amethyst occurrences in Rio Grande do Sul are famous. The crystals are sharp, lustrous and transparent-to-translucent. A few are doubly-terminated. In excellent condition. This specimen is from the Tracy Kimmel collection, and she acquired it from the John S. White collection. An attractive display piece!
