Item Description
Engaging and sparkly, and classic for the famous Erongo Mountains, this is a very fine combination of Aquamarines on Feldspar. An appealing light-blue, the color is enhanced by good-to-glassy luster and flat, very sharp, and GEMMY terminations. The main crystal runs nearly the entire length of the piece, and it is complemented by smaller Aquas that jut out at different angles, thus creating the ability to be displayed either vertically or horizontally. Choice and aesthetic, this small-cabinet specimen well-represents this renowned locality. Note this is probably older material, by her accession from the 1990s and not modern production.
