Item Description
A rare style from well-known Erongo Mountain includes these striking and unusual goshenite (near colorless) beryl sprays. The crystals have very good luster, bright, mirror-like terminations and a light oxide coating on the prism faces. The beryls, which range up to 2.4 cm, strikingly radiate out from the mounded matrix accented with schorl needles. Very nearly pristine, with only one broken crystal in the primary cluster, which really does not affect the aesthetics of the piece at all. A very fine and RARE, 360-degree miniature from the Charlie Key dealer stock. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON.
