Russian aquamarines, of this style, are old material we normally see only in historic books and in museums. This is a choice, fine miniature example of that historic classic, many of which were used for gems before the discovery of aquamarine from other countries later. Obtained by Pala Intl in the 1980s and kept in the company collection of beryls. It is complete all around, and just under 5 grams in mass.
