Quartz v. Amethyst

There’s not much to say that hasn’t already been said about the iconic amethyst that come out of Veracruz, Mexico. Renowned for their beautiful aesthetics and color, they are unmistakable, and an essential in any mineral collection. This is a fantastic and aesthetic spray of gemmy purple crystals on a calcite matrix with a RARE barite association as well.. In excellent condition, with all points terminated.
