Item Description
A cute, gemmy and lustrous, light green emerald crystal aesthetically wreathed with tiny calcite crystals at the base from the famous Muzo Mine of Colombia. Textbook hexagonal form and excellent gemminess on this cutie. A clean repair near the base is noted, but this remains a highly representative combination example of the species and noted locale. Ex Irv Brown Thumbnail Collection. 4.3 carats. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
