Item Description

This is an elegant cluster of riveting Aquamarine crystals from Erongo with sharp, lustrous, very gemmy crystals in a random but aesthetic orientation. It's a very attractive and three-dimensional piece with a few dozen, glassy, gemmy, light sky-blue Aquamarine crystals from 1 to 3 cm in length on an altered and contrasting cream colored Feldspar matrix, The crystals are all slender prismatic, transparent with well-defined hexagonal shape and the majority are doubly terminated with flat, pinacoid terminations. Striking Aqua clusters like this from Erongo are few and far between and this one is a well balanced piece with great presentation from finds of the early 2000s.
