81.74 GRAMS OF MEDINA AQUAMARINE PERFECTION

81.74 GRAMS OF MEDINA AQUAMARINE PERFECTION.

This is an absolute masterpiece.

An extraordinary 81.74 gram Aquamarine from Medina, Minas Gerais, Brazil with that highly desirable glowing blue color, incredible clarity, and classic elongated crystal form with an incredible termination that makes the finest Medina material so special.

The gemminess is RIDICULOUS. You can practically read through this crystal like blue glass. Long vertical striations run the length of the piece, leading into a beautiful textbook termination, while the interior absolutely glows when the light hits it.

But what takes this one to another level is the provenance.

Ex. Kevin Ward, with the original documentation describing the specimen as “SUPER GEMMY and BLUE!!” and specifically noting its exceptional clear interior, vibrant blue color, and doubly terminated crystal form.

More than a decade later, having this crystal in hand, that description still nails it. The color, clarity, luster, and overall presence are truly next level.
