8" Dark Amethyst Cut Base Cluster With Honey Calcite

Dark Amethyst Cut Base Cluster With Honey Calcite #52591

This is a beautiful, 8" tall cluster of deep purple Amethyst crystals from the famous mines near Artigas, Uruguay. The base of the cluster has been cut flat so that it stands up, and displays nicely on a flat surface. There is also a large, honey colored calcite crystal in the middle of the pocket of crystals. A gorgeous piece.

We import our material directly from the mines in Artigas, Uruguay and it is much darker, higher quality material than you normally see for sale.

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.
