I have been seeing the rough of this material at the Tucson gem show for years, but all the sudden it’s all over the place as cut stones, and I have to say, I kinda love it. . The original Lavender Moon Quartz was first discovered in 1956 in Bahia, Brazil (where lots of gorgeous gems come from) and from my understanding, it was a one time deposit, and has long since been mined out. The material that is on the market these days is typically not the crystals from the original find, it’s the stuff I’ve been seeing at the gem show all along. Although it has a similar appearance, this material is an irradiated Amethyst, likely also from Brazil. . There really isn’t much of a way to tell apart the original find stones from the new material, other than by doing scientific testing. One way you can kind of tell is by the price. A stone from the original find will likely cost 10x more than one of these. . Take them for what they’re worth. These beauties are obtainable via DM. 💎🫶🏻 #lavendermoonquartz #gems #minerals #crystals #gemstones #sparkle
