Item Description

These exciting Aquamarine crystals from Vietnam are some of the richest blue gem quality Beryls you will see from any locality. The started coming out around 2005, and the limited supply has kept them from becoming abundant on the market, so they are highly sought after by collectors. The combination of rich color (even in smaller sized crystals), great luster and wonderful internal gemminess puts them in the upper tier of good quality Beryls from around the world. This beautiful thumbnail specimen is a gemmy, rich blue colored hexagonal prism with fairly well-formed faces. The gentle surface etching gives the piece character, and reminds one of similar crystals from places like Brazil or Idaho. Considering it's a smaller crystal, it's amazingly satured in color. If you're a Beryl collector or gem crystal collector, don't miss out on this beautiful crystal from this limited discovery in Vietnam. Specimen weight is 1.71 grams.
