Item Description
An exceptionaLly gemmy, water-clear, pretty blue aquamarine crystal thumbnail is nicely accented with a few small, lustrous, jet-black schorl crystals on this showy and excellent piece. The complex pinacoidal termination is beautiful and this 360-degree cutie is very nearly pristine, with only the most trivial of termination edgewear. Certainly one of the very gemmiest Erongo aquas, with excellent color, we have offered at auction. Ex Heini Soltau Collection, a noted Erongo specialist. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
