Item Description

Mineral specimens from this very obscure Hunza Valley locale are rarely on the market. A striking, large, doubly terminated, multi-tiered, sharp, very glassy and translucent, pretty light powder-blue aquamarine crystal is aesthetically accented with clusters of nubby, snow-white albite crystals. Contacting on the back is essentially out of sight. Excellent large combination material from this uncommon locale in the Hunza Valley. Aquas from this locale have a uniquely different look, than other Pakistan localities. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock.
