A fat, barrel-shaped, 1.4-cm emerald crystal is perched on contrasting stark white calcite, making for a wonderful display piece that gives you a good matrix emerald crystal without breaking the bank. As with the above, this is one of the best quality emeralds for the price that I have been able to offer. It is hard now, to find reasonably priced specimens
