Description
This is a super Scepter-Amethyst from the Fieschergletscher of Valais Canton, Switzerland, the most famous Swiss locality for this species and variety. The single crystal is excellent defined, razor sharp and highly lustrous. The colouration is clear violet and the scepter growing very distinctive. Amethyst is very rare in the Swiss alps and combined with a scepter form I can say, that Scepteramethysts are the most rare and desired Quartzes in the Swiss alps. By far much rarer than their Austrian brothers and this is a super aesthetic and gemmy specimen.
