This is a totally transparent, 16.1 carat, nearly flawless, light emerald green crystal with a smaller sidecar perched near the termination. The large crystal measures 2.3 cm in length. This is typical of the Jos area emeralds, in that they are gemmier but more blue-green in color than their cousins around the world. Specimens are rare and highly desirable, and much less common than Colombian emeralds on the market from which these are readily distinguishable by the strange color range. Jos emeralds tend to occur only as single crystals - I have never seen them on matrix and only rarely in clusters, of which this is an extremely aesthetic specimen for the associaiton of the two crystals, giving it a pizzazz beyond wha tyou normally can expect.
