Description

Etched ametrine crystal from Bolivia. The local for ametrine.

The heavely etched crystals, typical for specimens from this location which gives the odd shapes to the crystal. Next to it the color paterns of purple and yellow which gave this quartz type its name, a mix between amethyst and citrine.

this name is a little misleading becuase in fact it is a mixture of amethist and ferruginous quarz, not citrine. This color patern has the typical shape of a pinwheel, good te be seen when backlite along the center of the crystal.

specimen has been photographed with backlight so the two colors show at their best
