Item Description
Rich emerald-green color highlights this sharp, glassy, gemmy to translucent, terminated emerald crystal from a New Find at this less well-known emerald trading area. The fine color is comparable to Colombian emerald. High praise, indeed. The upper 3 mm of the crystal is quite gemmy, with the rest of the crystal being translucent with veils. Complete all-around and pristine. 12.89 carats mass. Valued by the former dealer at $600. A rare new emerald find. MUCH BETTER in person!
