Item Description
From the find in the fall of 2004. This thumbnail size specimen hosts a few very attractive lustrous, sharp, very well formed, gemmy crystals with a soft blue color in the center and darker blue terminations or blue "caps" on the ends. This is a great rarity to find different shades of blue in the same Aquamarine crystals, and to find them with blue "caps" is really cool. Minor attached Albite makes for a nice touch. The piece doesn't seem to have any point of attachment, so it looks like a complete "floater" in my mind.
