Item Description
First-class cluster of 11 beautiful Aquamarines, many of which are doubly-terminated, sitting attractively on a bed of well-crystallized Orthoclase and Schorl crystals. The Aquas have excellent luster, sharp distinct form and, mostly, gorgeous gemmy terminations. The largest of the Aquamarines has good color (they all do), is about 3.3 cm long, and has a super-gemmy termination that itself is 8mm. Not often do you find an Erongo Aqua with this many well-defined, and beautiful, crystals. Excellent aesthetics.
