Quartz var. Amethyst with phantoms ex Scalisi

Item Description

The Goboboseb Mountains are known worldwide for their outstanding Amethyst crystals. While some are a deep purple through and through, probably the most recognizable are the glassy, water-clear crystals with vivid and enthralling purple phantoms. Here we have a single beauty exemplifying just that. And with faces that that vary from glassy to slightly frosted, it creates a different view from every angle. This fine crystal, with its purple to smoky phantoms, is an excellent and aesthetic small cabinet specimen from the renowned Brandberg Area. Previously in the collection of Phil Scalisi. Valued $500-600 From the collection of East Coast collector, George Elling, specializing in historic minerals of the East Coast and minerals from the development of old European mineralogy.
