Amethyst Tumblestone with ‘fingerprint’ inclusion

Amethyst Tumblestone with 'fingerprint' inclusion

One of the weirdest little tumblestones I've ever run into.

This piece has a series of fractures and cracks in with extremely unusual 'fingerprint' inclusions. Fingerprint inclusions are quite common in Amethyst and Quartz, but are typically small enough that they require a 10x loupe to view.

In these pieces, they can clearly be seen with the naked eye, especially if the stone is backlit. Frankly, they're impossible to miss.

• #1 - tumblestone measures approximately 33x29x23MM. This tumblestone also has an area of orange colouration, either Citrine or iron staining.
• #2 - a nice piece measuring 36x27x23MM. Nice amount of fractures and fingerprints especially under direct light.
• #3 - measuring 33x30x18MM. Numerous patches of inclusions, especially under direct light.
