4.1" Wide, Amethyst Cluster On Wood Base - Uruguay

Wide, Amethyst Cluster On Wood Base - Uruguay #121247

This is a very interesting amethyst crystal cluster from the famous mines near Artigas, Uruguay. It features many shimmering amethyst crystals and comes with a removable wood base that it sits in for display. This cluster had three small stalactite formations, one of which was cut and polished to reveal the mineral formations. The pale line running through the center of the cluster is the result of a natural shift in the crystal that causes the light to pass through those few differently than the others.

About Uruguay Amethyst

Though Brazil produces a greater volume of amethyst, the material from the Artigas region of Uruguay is renowned for its exceptional depth of color and superb crystal quality. Uruguayan amethyst typically forms in dense basalt flows and develops into richly saturated, grape-purple crystals that are considered some of the finest in the world. Because we import our specimens directly from the mines, we’re able to offer outstanding prices on everything from dramatic geodes to premium clusters and collector-grade crystal formations.
