This single crystal of glassy and gemmy, rich blue, aqua has tiny, splendent, black schorl crystals at its base and on the termination. In addition, two prism faces show the interesting negative impression of another crystal at its base. Super textbook example of a good aqua, and priced far less fro mthis locality in such quality, than it would be from Pakistan or Brazil
