Item Description
An aesthetic and sculptural parallel-growth pair of gemmy and lustrous, complexly terminated, pretty sea-blue aquamarine crystals from the less well known Padre Paraiso area of Minas Gerais. The rich color, luster and glassiness, terminations, crystal forms and cleavelandite rosettes at the base really add pizzazz. Complete all-around and pristine. The contacts on the back of the terminations have no damage, per se. The piece lights up, when backlit. Excellent 360 degree aqua from this locale. 154 grams mass. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
