Description
A nice sharp saturated Amethyst from this lesser seen Colorado locality. Normally specimens from here do not have this dark of a purple color. This is in my opinion a great specimen from Red Feather Lakes which makes sense since it is from the Ex. Martin Zinn III Collection
Known provenanceKnowing where your specimen comes from and who owned it adds to its story and value. Good provenance helps prove it's authentic and preserves important details about its discovery.
