Item Description
The limpid terminations, striking sculptural form of the parallel-growth, stair-stepped terminations and beautiful ice-blue color make for a very fine and aesthetic aquamarine from the Shigar Valley. The extreme glassiness and high luster add to the attractiveness of this crystal. You look down the water-clear C-axis right to the translucent lower body of the crystal. An excellent 360-degree crystal, that is nearly pristine, having only a trivial bit of hard-to-see bruising to a lower termination edge. Classic Shigar Valley aquamarine. 86 grams mass. Valued at $2500.
