Item Description
A dramatic, giant aquamarine crystal from the less well known Padre Paraiso area of Minas Gerais. The glassy, highly lustrous crystal has beautiful sea-green color, textbook hexagonal form and sharp, modified, pinacoidal termination. The crystal has excellent translucence and there is even a hollow tube, that starts on the side. This huge crystal is essentially pristine, as the two contacts on the sides are damage-free, per se. Ex Wes Parker Collection. 327 grams. Valued at $2000 and comes with a custom-made lucite base. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
