Aquamarine w/ Albite (uncommon locale) ex Obodda

Item Description

Mineral specimens from this very obscure Hunza Valley locale are rarely on the market. A striking, intergrown pair of textbook, hexagonal, pretty light powder-blue aquamarine crystals are aesthetically accented with nubby, snow-white albite crystals. The sharp crystals are very glassy and translucent. Complete all-around and nearly pristine, with only one spot of trivial termination edge wear. An excellent specimen from this uncommon locale in the Hunza Valley. Aquas from this locale have a uniquely different look, than other Pakistan localities. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock. Valued $750-1000.
