description:

A majestic large grouping of blue glassy gemmy prismatic terminated aquamarine crystals, the largest measuring to 8.0 cm in length, forming an attractive and aesthetic cluster on matrix with minor muscovite. Sits perfectly by itself for display. Crystallized all around with minor damage on the back side as seen; this out of view when the piece is displayed correctly. Minor black prismatic needle-like crystals are present as inclusions, likely tourmaline. Measures 19.5 x 13.0 x 12.0 cm in size overall. Beautiful large cabinet piece!
