Item Description

Superbly perched on a white albite matrix is a single, limpid, very light blue, aqua crystal, measuring 3.2 cm in length. The termination appears to exhibit some secondary growth or contact on the back of the termination, as if another aqua crystal was growing out of the main crystal. A real gem! Small, but absolutely pristine and sculptural. For the collector who chooses quality over size, this one is mesmerizing and a little "jewel" of a specimen.
