Amethyst on Quartz

Dimensions: 5.6 x 3.7 x 6.5cm Locality: Andilamena Quartz Quarries, Andranotokana Massif, Andilamena District, Alaotra-Mangoro, Madagascar A little mineralogical gem! The combination and presentation of the amethyst on a slightly citrine twinned quartz is truly superb. The piece is extremely luminous, the amethyst is perfect, and displayed in a glass case, it's the only thing you see! Dimensions without the acrylic base, which is supplied with the mineralogical specimen. The mineral is not glued to the base (flexible sealant).
