Outstanding and highly aesthetic amethyst specimen from the renowned deposits of Veracruz, Mexico — a classic and increasingly sought-after locality among advanced quartz collectors. This impressive cabinet-sized piece (21 cm) displays numerous elongated prismatic amethyst crystals elegantly rising from a contrasting volcanic basalt matrix. The specimen showcases the refined crystal habit for which Veracruz material is internationally celebrated. Several crystals exhibit well-developed pyramidal terminations, vitreous luster, and attractive violet zoning with internal depth. The distribution of crystals across the matrix creates a three-dimensional composition with excellent balance and visual harmony. The combination of size, aesthetics, and locality makes this a strong display specimen suitable for an advanced collection or refined interior presentation. Material of this size and aesthetic presence from Veracruz has become increasingly difficult to source on the market. Dimensions 18x15x6 cm 460 grans Large cabinet specimen with strong visual impact.
