Item Description

Gem, pretty blue aquamarine crystals to 2.6 cm are dramatically set on the striking sculptural matrix of two, intergrown, heavily etched feldspar crystals. The back provides a colorful bonus with a rich covering of hyalite opal, that fluoresces neon-green under SW UV light. The beautiful large aqua has only barely noticeable termination edge wear. This is a very fine and aesthetic combination Erongo example with top-tier gemmy aquas.
