Amethyst - flower form, included by Rutile (Ref: AX-24-405)
Karur, Tamil Nadu, India
53mm x 53mm x 32mm
minID: R5W-LTA
Top rich purple color, fine form and in excellent condition, this is a very choice Karur flower. These radiating clusters of crystals are distinctive, and unlike "flower-like" radiating groups found anyplace else, top pieces can have gem clear deep colored crystals and brilliant luster. This is one of that caliber. Few have such perfect condition and intense color, there is only one tiny spot of chipping on the backside, the front is fully perfect. In addition the crystals are Rutilated, with magnification they are densely filled with red needles of Rutile. Several crystals show scepter forms or the rare hollow hexagonal cavity in the terminations. Very exotic, unusual and pretty specimen.From: Well-Arranged Molecules
