Item Description
A very attractive, classic, near "floater" Aquamarine crystal showing a heavily etched and sculptural appearance The color is a beautiful light blue when viewed with reflected light. These specimens seemed to have "dried up" on the market over the years, and and its a shame because they are simply some of the most unique and distinctive Aquamarine crystals extant. The combination of unique form, lustrous faces, and beautiful color make these specimens a must-have for any Beryl collector. This piece actually comes from Rich Kosnar's collection, and he personally obtained the piece on a buying trip to Brazil in 1972.
