Item Description

A stunning, dense, complex cluster of water-clear, gemmy, light-blue aquamarine crystals from Nagar, Pakistan. The tremendous variety of crystal sizes and diverging growth pattern really makes for a striking specimen. The crystal density, itself, is very noteworthy. The short, fat, crystal is 3.1 x 2.6 cm. The limpid quality of the crystals and the modified pinacoidal terminations really add character. Intense top glassy luster makes it sparkle. The crystals themselves are in outstanding, nearly pristine shape, with only one barely noticeable termination bruise. A bit of periphery wear, mostly concentrated on one lesser side, is noted but is certainly not a detraction. Complete all-around otherwise, this 360-degree gem aqua cluster looks great from any direction! Fairly valued at $1750-2000. Dense clusters of this quality and gemminess are not that common, at all. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
