Gem Emerald with Calcite

Item Description

A gorgeous, gemmy and lustrous, 1.1 cm, emerald crystal with top color is jauntily set atop blocky, starkly contrasting calcite and shale matrix from the famed Coscuez Mine of Colombia. This crystal is particularly gemmy in the upper 2 mm and does not appear to have any inclusions or internal crazing. A very showy, highly representative and affordable emerald specimen, that won"t break the bank. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON! valued $2500 for sheer gemminess, quality, and pizzazz. seldom can we offer such at auction but this came in a liquidation trade
