Item Description
From a find in the Fall of 2004. This is a great rarity for Beryl. A few years ago, I remember seeing some very interesting, rare bi-color crystals of Beryl from Pakistan that were tabular with a pink core and a blue ring surrounding it. These new crystals are even more rare and interesting as they feature the same pink and blue bi-color, but with much more attractive prismatic crystals. This thumbnail size specimen hosts a pair of very attractive lustrous, sharp, very well formed, gemmy, crystals with a pale pink Morganite color at the center and gemmy blue Aquamarine terminations. This is a great rarity to find prismatic Morganite from any locality. The quality of this crystals is great for the material and the fact that this is prismatic Morganite makes it highly desirable. A cool gem crystal specimen from Pakistan!
