Item Description
A very gemmy, light greenish-blue color, prismatic etched crystal of Aquamarine with an interesting "tube"-like inclusion running the length of the crystal. The piece was mined about 30 years ago, and comes from the collection of Richard Kosnar, who had a strong presence in Brazil bringing back a large quantity of pegmatite minerals in the 1970s. The crystal would make a great addition to any gem crystal suite, especially since gem Aquas from Brazil are truly difficult to find on the market these days.
