Mondo Smoky Amethyst Scepter Enhydro w Lightning Etching

This is a classic Mondo amethyst scepter from Tanzania, displaying the locality’s well-known mix of smoky-to-amethyst zoning and rugged, pocket-grown texture.

The piece contains a clear enhydro, easily visible when tilted.

Enhydros are common in Mondo quartz, especially in scepters and larger points, and they add that characteristic internal movement collectors enjoy.

The termination shows true lightning etching — the sharp, angular dissolution patterns Mondo is famous for. These etched channels create broken reflections across the faces and give the surface its bold, high-relief texture.

Across the body you see hematite freckles, patches of iron-oxide staining, and that distinctive circular hematite growth mark on one face — an eye-catching Mondo quirk that immediately sets the piece apart.

Natural pocket matrix still adheres to the head, emphasizing that this is an artisan-mined, unprocessed specimen. Turning the scepter reveals shifts between smoky and amethyst tones depending on the angle of the light.

A strong, tactile scepter with movement (enhydro), texture (etching), and classic Mondo hematite character — everything this locality is known for, represented accurately.
