The Canary Islands are well-known for their Olivine, so I am pretty sure this specimen comes from one of the islands, but I have some doubts about the Amethyst. It looks like Brasilian Amethyst, with wide Quartz "framing" (excuse me my unprofessional terminology, I am originally a speaker of Polish and I have to learn the English vocabulary connected with mineralogy), which makes it less valuable. Anyway, it is a very nice gift! Oh, and by the way- Olivine is my fav mineral :)
