Aquamarine (doubly-terminated) (ex Rolando Gioia Collection) (35.37 grams)

Item Description

This is a doubly-terminated 35.37 gram crystal of natural, light blue Aquamarine with several WATER CLEAR sections. It is essentially a floater, complete-all-around with gentle etching patterns on the front and back. Pictures do NOT do justice to the specimen, which is so much more attractive in person. It's not common to find SHARP and WELL-FORMED doubly-terminated Aquamarine crystals from any Brazilian locality. Valued at $750. From the collection of Rolando Gioia (a contributor to new definitive book on Brazilian minerals: "Minerais e Pedras Preciosas do Brasil").
