An exceptional and very aesthetic specimen from recent finds at the Erongo Mountains of Namibia. Seven gemmy and lustrous aquamarine crystals to 3.7 cm are very attractively set, jackstraw-fashion, in a very complimentary matrix of corroded feldspar crystals. All of the aquamarines are pristine. They have exceptional gemminess for this locality and the color is a beautiful, rich blue.
