Item Description

A gorgeous, rich emerald-green, 1.5 x 1.5 x 1.2 cm, gemmy/translucent, emerald crystal is beautifully set in shale matrix on this stunning miniature from the famous Cosquez Mine. The upper 5 mm of the hexagonal crystal is quite gemmy on this supremely lustrous and glassy crystal. Pristine. This would be a fine and aesthetic matrix emerald addition to a collection. A New World Thanksgiving spiker. Fairly valued at $2500, you could easily see this on a shelf at a show for more money yet. It "pops" to the eye, but we got it in a collection liquidation and can auction it. You could add another "zero" or more, if this was any more gemmy. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!!
