Description from the seller
Natural Aquamarine on Muscovite — Shigar District, Pakistan
A beautiful small-cabinet mineral specimen featuring multiple lustrous, pale-blue aquamarine crystals perched upon an intricate, radiating matrix of silvery muscovite mica from the renowned Shigar District of Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan.
The specimen displays several well-formed aquamarine crystals with attractive hexagonal crystal faces, delicate icy-blue coloration, and areas of excellent transparency. The central crystal rises prominently above the matrix, while additional aquamarine crystals are distributed across the specimen, creating an exceptionally interesting three-dimensional arrangement.
The muscovite forms an elaborate assemblage of elongated, bladed crystals with reflective silvery and champagne-colored surfaces. Their radiating growth creates beautiful contrast against the cool blue aquamarine, giving the piece a distinctive, almost floral appearance.
At approximately 8 cm across, this is an attractive cabinet specimen with numerous individual crystals to explore and excellent visual appeal from multiple viewing angles.
