Beryl var. Aquamarine

Wonderful-quality, glassy, undamaged doubly-terminated gem aquamarine crystal from Dassu, Braldu Valley, Shigar District, Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan. The unusual etching/overgrowth features on the edges of the termination make this crystal “special” and help it stand out from the many other Pakistani aquamarine crystals on the market. Comes with a custom acrylic display base. Mark Cross photo.
