This is an arrival from Bahia, Brazil and you will be in love when you hold the crystal; for the first time … pictures cannot truly capture the ethereal beauty! The crystal is a 1 lb 13.6 oz and 7.3” by 3.25” by 2.2” and is a lovely light amethyst with ancient keys and healed areas. Near as I can tell, it is also a dissolution quartz with deep rivulets carved into the sides that weren’t keyed and that have healed through the eons. Although lustrous all over, the “carved” areas look frosty. The terminal faces hold deeply carved areas as well subtle glyphs including thread-like lines. When backlit, there is an opalescent glow! There are some small dings but nothing that detracts in any manner from the beauty.
