Description

Material was found decades ago - today it is more or less impossible just to find a smaple at the locality. The crystal is sharp terminated and lustrous all around. The zepter-head is transparent and shows a light amethyste color. Allready a good sample from this famous alpine locality. No significant damages to report, bottom was on the rock.
