For aesthetics, matrix association, color and contrast, I was shocked to see htis was a NC amethyst. The crystals, which reach 2.7 cm, are sharp and equant. They have great color, luster and translucence (more so in person). The cluster is perched dramatically, complete all around, and undamaged save for on eminiscule ding on the back of one single crystal of the group.
