Aquamarine

Item Description

A classic, and now difficult to find, gemmy, tapered etched crystal of light greenish Aquamarine from the famous locality at Jaqueto. This area has produced some of the most distinctive etched Beryl crystals extant, and since very little has been available for many years, they are highly prized and coveted by collectors. Along with the eye-catching color (not the typical blue hue that one would expect), the crystal is nearly 100% GEM quality when backlit. It does have an interesting form and high exterior luster. A neat piece to pick up if you're a thumbnail collector, or if you collect gem crystals, Brazilian minerals or even Aquas.
