Aquamarine (doubly-terminated) with Muscovite

Item Description

Some of the finest world-class Aquamarine speicmens have been found in Pakistan, which has been the most productive country for specimens in the last 30 years. Most people associate Pakistani Aquas with the Shigar Valley, but nearby in Nagar, some really gorgeous pieces have been found over the years. This piece features a sharp, glassy, GEMMY, soft blue color, doubly-terminated hexagonal prismatic crystal of Aquamarine which associated with minor silvery Muscovite. One of the terminations has a unusual slanted angle to it, but it's not damaged. The piece is in good shape on the front, but it's not complete on the back. A lovely thumbnail sized display specimen of this classic material from Chumar Bakhoor.
