This cabinet specimen features a 6 x 2 x 2 cm aqua of deep color, with several accenting crystals by its termination, perched on a strangely etched, windswept-looking feldspar crystal cluster. It is EXTREMELY dramatic in its overall display, and you get a lot more for your money here than with a comparably sized Pakistani Aqua, which likely would have to have a repair to get to this price range and sitll retain the quality. I cannot tell you why, but Erongo Aquas just do not ge tthe respect they deserve. THIS ONE should! Comes with custom lucite display base.
