A GORGEOUS, very glassy and transparent, unusually doubly terminated amethyst crystal from Brandberg, Namibia. Pocket forces broke the crystal at the base, which then healed. The smaller quartz crystal grew over the healed surface, making this a doubly terminated crystal. The frontal crystal faces and termination are totally pristine, and the contact on the back is in invisible. CHOICE material from the Lewadny Collection. 6.6 x 1.9 x 1.8 cm
