Item Description

A beautiful pair of gemmy aquamarine crystals is aesthetically set on the edge of the pearlescent mucovite blades with albite matrix on this dramatic and excellent combination from Nagar. The impressive large aqua is 4.6 cm and is partially doubly terminated. The lustrous, glassy, striated crystals have fine blue color with striking large gem termination areas above translucent bodies. The glassy terminations of both crystals are frosted and lightly pitted, which adds an exotic character to the piece. These crystals are pristine, except for the periphery wear at the base. This most excellent combination has multiple fine display views. Ex Paco Gutierrez Collection of Spain. Here's your chance to get a fine aquamarine specimen at a very reasonable price point. Valued at $2000 retail, in any case.
