Description
The amethyst heart from Uruguay lights up brightly with its deep dark violet colours as soon as light falls on it. On the side, a white calcite can be seen, on which a young generation of amethyst crystals has grown. The crystals on the calcite are partly grey, lilac and violet. Beneath the amethyst lies a layer of pure clear quartz reaching down to the mother rock.
