Item Description

Wonderful 360 degree cluster of three sharp hexagonal Aquamarine crystals with an unusual seafoam blue color for this location, compared to the usual more pastel flat blue color. The main large crystal is 5.1 cm tall and 4.5 cm wide with 2 additional smaller Aquas on one side. The crystals have a glassy luster and are translucent with the top 1/3 of the crystals having water clear transparency. The color is an evenly saturated sky blue to hints of light greenish blue with some inclusions, possibly iron staining, present in the translucent intervals. The Aquamarine crystals are complete with complex beveled terminations. They are in near-pristine condition with only one bruised bevel on the main crystal. Just a really appealing grouping and great example of a Pakistan Aquamarine. Ex. Paul Zerfass Collection (#149).
