Description

A very elegant miniature consisting of a group of colorless aquamarine crystals arranged in a quite sculptural fashion. The main three beryls display a parallel growth and terminate at different heights, the other two are grown on the side as parallel individuals. The largest aqua has a rather flat habitus. All of them displays both base pinacoid and side pyramid faces, prividing a rather complex termination. All aquas are perfectly gemmy on top and display exceptional lustre. 

On the side, there is a blocky pink apatite. Two main faces are very lustrous and in great conditions, although the crystal is rather crude and not complete, as it appears that this was once part of a larger specimen, then trimmed.

A very good miniature in great conditions. From the former Swiss collection Lehmann (late 80s).
