Amethyst is a truly remarkable gemstone, it seems to get more and more beautiful with each and every variation. This stone is one of the specimens pulled from an innocent looking pocket in the bedrock. But each cavity offers a slightly different environment for the crystals to grow, this means variations and combinations that are truly unique to each and every void. Even in the same stretch of bedrock. This one produced specimens of unusually incredible beauty and geologic significance. The intricate nature of the points and the sub points, coupled with their 'phantom' nature is stunning. The purples are deep and rich with a slight hint of iron oxides on the surface. But when you hold it to the light you see the praisiolite at the core of each point. The 'leek green' colouring shines through for a very unique experience. Praisiolite, also known as green amethyst, is the result of amethyst quartz being exposed to heat or irradiation. Having it embedded into the same crystal as amethyst is quite rare. Like all quartz, these are wonderful stones to use in combination with other stones. The second stones energy will be amplified by its contact with this green quartz crystal.
