Item Description
A beautiful and dramatic aquamarine crystal from the less well known Padre Paraiso area of Minas Gerais. The glassy, highly lustrous crystal has vivid blue-green color, textbook hexagonal form and a striking, sharp, modified, pinacoidal termination. The crystal has excellent translucence, as the photos show. This very fine crystal is complete all-around and pristine. Ex Wes Parker Collection. 195 grams. Valued at $1250 and comes with a custom-made lucite base. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
