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. The mass is 73 grams. I love the modifying edges on the fine, complete pyramidal termination, as it makes this crystal stand out from a crowd! Perfect, no damage, and with an exceptional display quality, this is a superb example in the price and size range, of a modern Pakistani aquamarine specimen. For the termination, perhaps our favorite single of the lot.
