Presenting this amazing Aquamarine crystal with pink Apatite and Mica. It is complete gem-quality material! This 47 grams crystal has flat termination and sky deep blue colour. This is a classic example of gem-quality Aquamarine from Shigar Valley, an area known worldwide for its gem quality Aquamarines. The 2.7 cm thick crystal has a sharp, glassy termination, with amazing combinations and absolutely incredible colour contrast. The top half of this exceptional and complete Aquamarine crystal is glassy and almost completely gemmy with a strong, sky blue color. The lower half of the crystal is translucent with a richer sky blue hue, due to the inclusions and veils within that bounce light around a bit. A superb, classic Pakistani Aquamarine with no damage or repair.
