Aquamarine on Feldspar
Shigar Valley, Skardu Road, Haramosh Mts, Gilgit, Northern Areas, Pakistan
Large Cabinet, 17.0 x 10.2 x 7.5 cm
SOLD
This showy specimen features a 7 x 4.5 x 2 cm aquamarine crystal perched on starkly contrasting matrix of crystallized feldspar. It is a large and impressive specimen. The piece is priced very reasonably, I think, because the aqua is repaired (one clean join at its midpoint). If not for the repair, this would easily be a five-figure specimen because of the great clarity and rich blue color of the crystal.
