Description

A very uncommon amethyst sceptre quartz cluster from the Alps. The specimen shows three distinct sceptre crystals rising from a quartz matrix, each displaying a delicate but clearly visible purple coloration. One crystal formed as a negative sceptre, which adds additional interest for collectors who appreciate unusual alpine growth features.

The crystals are nicely positioned and contrast well with the light matrix. Alpine sceptre formations like this are rarely found today, making this a particularly appealing and characteristic piece.
