Phantom Amethyst Crystal Single Point

A single amethyst point from Bolivia with enclosed phantom crystals and veins of smoky quartz as well as reddish quartz. The point displays the entire spectrum from deep dark purple to light lilac areas.

Phantom crystals form when a growth cycle is interrupted and a foreign mineral layer deposits on the existing crystal surface before quartz growth begins again. The ghost outlines of earlier crystal points remain visible.

Bolivian amethysts are valued by collectors for their intense color depth and rare phantom structures. The single point has minor damage at the tip, which has been taken into account in the pricing.
