Beryl Var. Emerald in SCHIST$2,500.00
Wire transfers available, to set up
Three prismatic crystals of Emerald measuring to 1 cm are half embedded in a plate of Biotite-Chlorite Schist from the Emerald Deposit in the Habach Valley, Salzburg State, Austria. Two vivid emerald green and one pale sea green Beryl crystals stand proud of the light greenish-grey Schist which has a bright, greenish-silver satin lustre. The largest Emerald measures 10 x 5 mm, the third dimension remaining embedded within the schist. This deposit has been known since at least the mid-sixteenth century, with the first recorded mining activity beginning in 1797. The Emerald crystals are translucent but not gemmy, as is standard for this locality. Although Emeralds from this deposit are rarely suited for cutting and faceting they do remain a European classic from this historic locality. This cabinet specimen comes with a German collector’s yellow card label.
