A Large Crystal of Amethyst

[nuggethill]

G'day all I brought this Amethyst off the internet from Brazil many years ago

the story go's that these large crystals only come from one cave in Brazil

and they fall from a roof of a cave after a quake the sellers find them on the floor of the cave  

and sell them on ,

I don't know how true this story is but that may explain the cracks in the crystal

the pointing finger is where there is a large crack

                                            

and yes I did cut the grass after I took the photo's LOL

Ann these are the photo's of the crystal I said I would post

regards Harry 

P.S. these are the gifts I brought for my better half

Thanks for sharing Harry. Those colours that nature produces are stunning. Still hoping to find an amethyst one day.

Thanks for the comment Ian

I finally found I had to post these photo's to photobucket

down size them as my computer wouldn't let me

It was a dull day when I took the

photo's so you can't see the vivid shades of purple

I hope you do Ann that would be
