Item Description

A classic tapered Aquamarine crystal from the lesser known Padre Paraiso area in Brazil. This beautiful little gem crystal is nearly water clear in clarity and shows the well known "bullet" habit that comes from selective hydrothermal etching to create these really cool crystals. Virtually undamaged, except for the base where it detached from the matrix. A worthwhile and really attractive non-Pakistani Aquamarine crystal.
