Description from the seller

This natural emerald from Nigeria is in a completely rough state and has undergone no cutting or polishing. The crystal displays the fresh green color for which Nigerian emeralds are beloved, often with attractive nuances of mint green to light blue-green.

Specifications:
Type: Natural emerald – variety of beryl
Origin: Nigeria
Treatment: Naturally rough / uncut
Weight: 1.87 carats

Color: Green, with mint-green to blue-green nuances
Shape: Natural rough crystal

Nigeria is a lesser-known but particularly interesting origin for emeralds. In particular, material from Central Nigeria can be characterized by a bright, vivid appearance and fresh mint- to blue-green color nuances. This gives Nigerian emeralds a distinct character compared to the usually deeper green emeralds from more well-known localities.

The natural inclusions, growth lines, and any color zoning tell the story of the crystal's geological formation. These features make each specimen unique and emphasize the authentic, untreated character of the stone.

An attractive collectible for lovers of natural minerals, gemstones, and remarkable African localities. Also interesting for lapidaries or as a study object for possible further processing, depending on the internal structure.

Carefully packaged and shipped securely.
