Darkest natural sun colored purple hutch Ive found

This morning I had a pretty bad case of cabin fever :BangHead: I just had to escape for awhile ,had to get out of the house !!! I pondered awhile and decided to go hunt some crystals on the Peak . I didn't find one crystal ??? disappointing with the rain we've had ! but I came around a tree and saw this hutch from about 20-25 yards away just lying there fully exposed and just sparkling in the sun :hello2: hard to fathom it survived 100+ years of deep snow,hail, and other hikers to wind up in my grubby paws and in my showcase :headbang:. It is the deepest natural sun turned purple I have ever found ! The CCBW was in business 1893 - 1907 this style was used from 1900 to 1907.
