A stunning and sparkling, gemmy and blue transparent lustrous gem single aquamarine crystal from an unusual location, this has a special shape and feel to it that sets it apart from other localities. Alex prided himself on a strong and diverse African suite, and although everybody can have a Pakistani aquamarine these days - African specimens of quality are rare, particularly in fine thumbnails. This has a refined, special termination which is mesmerizing in person. The photos do not convey the robust nature of this crystal. It is dramatic, volumetric, and leaps out of a case of thumbnails in person so that it is a much more sophisticated thumbnail representative of beryl and aquamarine, than are most others in the size class.
