What makes this aquamarine special?
Aquamarine belongs to the beryl group and owes its characteristic blue color to traces of iron in the crystal lattice.
While many aquamarines occur as single, elongated crystals, this specimen is distinguished by a complex, intergrown crystal structure.
The numerous transparent surfaces give the mineral an extraordinary light effect, making it a fascinating little natural treasure.
