Item Description

Exceptional cluster of four Aquamarine crystals set beautifully on two offsetting Orthoclase crystals. The two largest Aquas, 3 cm and 2 cm respectively, have good color and superior gemminess and luster. In fact, they are so transparent that the gemmy terminations are hard to catch in the pics. As good as the pics are, it is so much better in person. Aesthetic and gorgeous, this is a great miniature.
