Item Description

Impressive and large Aquamarine and Schorl specimen from the Erongo Mountains. There are several dozen sharp and very lustrous Aquas, light gray-blue in color with first-rate mirror-like, gemmy terminations. The Aquas range up to 2.1 cm long and .6 cm thick. The luster on them is high. They rest on, and are intergrown with, thousands of slender, highly lustrous Schorl needles. An excellent and unusual specimen. Much better in person than the pics can portray because of how dark the Schorls are.
