Aquamarine (spray)

Item Description

The Shigar Valley in Pakistan is famous for producing some of the finest examples of Aquamarine from any world locality. Most of the time, you'll see either single crystals or isolated crystals on matrix, but multi-crystal groups like this are much less common. This small cabinet display specimen is a beautiful "spray" of fine, sharp, rather lustrous, GEM/gemmy, very pale blue color, thin prismatic hexagonal crystals sitting on a tiny bit of matrix. Most of the crystals are in excellent condition, but there are a few minor imperfections that can be seen. The largest individual crystal measures 2.4 cm. A showy and certainly different kind of Aqua from this world-famous specimen producing area in Pakistan. Priced in the inventory at $1,200.
