Quartz Var. Amethyst

Here is something you do not see every day - a good PERUVIAN amethyst?! This is from the Peruvian suite of Marty Zinn's collection, sold a few years ago now. I have seen singles and lcusters with less color, but never such a nice piece as this with both aesthetics AND color. It is pristine and complete all around, even crudely doubly-terminated on the bottom of all points. very fine for Peru, but good for ANY locality as well.
