Great phantom amethyst point from Brazil

A phantom amethyst point from Brazil. Compact, almost tablet-shaped geometry with well-balanced proportions and visible phantom stratigraphy inside.

The phantom structures are visible as geometric line patterns, often in parallel layers, following the hexagonal quartz crystallography. Each layer corresponds to a growth episode in the geological past.

Brazilian deposits in Rio Grande do Sul are the world's classic phantom amethyst provenance. The material quality is gemologically classified by the visibility of the layers and the clarity of the quartz matrix.

A compact collector size for the classic display case. The phantom effect is best appreciated with backlighting.
