Description

Just a thumbnail - but very impressive. The aquamaroine crystal is optical, sharp and highly lustrous and it formed a "cross"-like assemble with a bi-terminated light feld-spat crystal. Minor schorl is also present. This one was hard to photograph - in person thisis really a tiny jewel.
