This very unique and interesting Spruce Ridge plate is dominated by a large (4.4 cm) scepter crystal that is amethystine at the top. It is zoned, not phantomed nor scepterd. The effect is most unusual and really beautiful in a subtle manner. The large crystal is framed by smaller quartz crystals, the larger of which also have amethystine terminations. The luster is good and the crystals have more clarity than could be shown in the picture (they are water clear). This is a unique, large, and very appealing quartz plate from a remote and hard-to-collect locale, visibly distinct from just about any other quartz specimens.
