Description

Impressive piece from the classic Alpine type locality!First, this is a full amethyst on smokey scepter, with both quartz types in full size!Then, it's a deep colored piece, with fine color for the amethyst and almost morion color for the smokey!And, it's bent quartz, something I've never seen again from the locality!Keeping in mind the rarity of those specimens, mined from a cold mountain full of pine tree needles and even with mines (bombs) burried since World War II in the area.
