Item Description
These specimens are some of the most unique and attractive Aquas from any locality. Tjhey have become some of the most distinctive and easily recognizable Aquas on the planet. Tabular Aquamarine crystals are rare, but some of the Aquas from Xuebaoding are absolutely superb quality to boot! This particular piece features sharp, lustrous, GEM/gemmy, pale blue, unusually tabular crystals of Aquamarine measuring up to 1.7 cm across with compressed, bladed, silvery Muscovite and white Albite crystals. The quality is good overall, but the largest Aqua does have a small "fish eye" contact. A good representative specimen from this unique locality.
