Large Aquamarine plate (NEW FIND - excellent!)

Item Description

An impressive, sculptural and rich large aquamarine specimen from a NEW FIND in the Erongos. A striking, large, 5.7 x 2.8 x 2.3 cm crystal dominates this dramatic 3-dimensional piece. The very glassy and lustrous, textbook hexagonal crystals have rich blue color. All of the crystals have very gemmy termination areas, with typically crackly lower sections. The jackstraw placement of the aquas is fantastic and artistic. All of the major crystals are pristine, except for a hard-to-see bruised face on the lower center projecting crystal. DIRECT from the miners, as the iron oxides have not been cooked off of the piece. Here's your chance to get an outstanding large sculptural and rich example from a NEW FIND! No new significant material has come out in at least 5 years. Fairly valued at $2500-3000 and worth. A major specimen from the find.
