Natural crystal which contains iron,magnets and other minerals often appears in beautiful purple color and is known as Amethyst.Different origin and composition will lead to changes in shades and crystal form.Although the amethyst is produced throughout the world,you can not find such amethyst specimen with high glossiness and transparency in large quantities.Currently,the major producing countries of amethyst are Brazil,Uruguay and Madagascar,etc.Color and clarity are found to be equally important when it comes to the evaluation of an Amethyst.
High-quality amethyst specimens from Mexico are well received by collectors.This amethyst has excellent glossiness and transparency.The cluster is beautifully shaped with petal-like appearance.The head is unique in skeleton growth.Gradational violet leaves a fantastic and noble feeling.
