This stunning, sky-blue aquamarine measures 9 x 3 x 2.5 cm in size. It has a superior glassy luster and a totally gem upper half, that is transparent. I love the little "button" sticking out the top! The aqua is NOT repaired, which is miraculous given its perch on the side of a crystallized feldspar matrix. The feldspar crystals (over an inch in size) are unusually blocky and geometric, adding to the appeal of the specimen by their contrast. Overall, one of the most stylish and impressive, unrepaired matrix aquamarines I have been able to sell without breaking the $10,000 mark, and one I am proud to offer without having to...though it could easily look more expensive, on a shelf, I feel.
