Moroccan amethysts are rare and the "calling card" of "Moroccans" is the characteristic zones - colorless and purple, as well as lepidocrocite hairs (hydrous iron oxide - hydrogoethite). And "Moroccans" are bright, without an ash shade and have a sharp change in color when changing lighting. In a separate photo, the stone at dawn and during the day. At present, it is extremely difficult to find decent material. Based on the totality of characteristics, I think that this amethyst can be confidently classified as "Premium"
