Item Description

These specimens are some of the most unique and attractive Aquas from any locality. They have become some of the most distinctive and easily recognizable Aquas on the planet. Tabular Aquamarine crystals are rare, but some of the Aquas from Xuebaoding are absolutely superb quality to boot! This particular piece features a gemmy, rather sharp, lustrous, light blue, unusually tabular crystal of Aquamarine measuring 1.5 cm associated sitting amongst compressed, bladed, silvery-tan Muscovite with little white Microcline crystals. The quality of the Aquamarine crystal is very good, not just for the locality, but for Beryl in general. It's hard to convey the quality through photos, and the piece is BETTER IN PERSON.
