Two display minerals: Rosa del Deserto crystallized gypsum in a cluster formation from North Africa and Amethyst druse quartz from Brazil, total weight 3.2 kg.
Description from the seller
Lotto of two display minerals:
- Crystallized Desert Rose;
- Deep Purple Amethyst Druse.
Total 3.20 kg.
Excellent condition, as shown in the photos.
Desert Rose (Crystallized Gypsum).
A well-formed Desert Rose specimen, from the Saharan regions.
Unlike many single Desert Roses, this one presents as a rich clustered aggregate, creating a dense, three-dimensional structure.
The gypsum petals are well-formed and sharp, giving the specimen a very pronounced organic, floral appearance.
The pink-beige-brown color is uniform and attractive, typical of the inclusion of local sand during crystallization.
Specifications:
Weight: 1.70 kg
Dimensions: 17 cm x 18 cm x 11 cm.
Amethyst Druse (Quartz)
A very beautiful piece of amethyst druse, a variety of microcrystalline quartz.
The crystals exhibit a deep, uniform purple color saturation.
The crystal tips are particularly saturated.
Individual crystals show well-defined faces and good termination.
The amethyst rests on a lighter quartz matrix and host rock, creating a pleasant visual contrast that enhances the purple color.
The druse form makes it perfect for display on a base or shelf.

Weight: 1.50 kg
