Description

An open, curved amethyst cluster with a shallow crystal-lined hollow and raised purple crystal groups at either end. Deep violet centres contrast with translucent lilac edges, pale quartz and scattered green mineral detail.

The recorded mineral association is Amethyst with Epidote/Chlorite and Pyrite. Textured coatings and exposed quartz faces give contrasting surface detail as the specimen is viewed from different angles.

The shallow hollow creates an open centre between the raised crystal groups. This makes the curved outline especially noticeable and gives the cluster a different display character from a solid, evenly covered quartz mass.

Paler lilac edges soften the transition into the deeper violet crystal centres. The scattered green detail introduces a second texture beside the reflective quartz faces, allowing both the overall formation and its smaller mineral features to be appreciated.
