This Aquamarine crystal lot (AQ-62xl) of 3 crystals is from Nigeria… Nigerian Aqua is known for its rich blue, blue-green color. I probably got them in the late ’80’s… … the photos are of the crystals in this lot. They capture the color and clarity pretty well. The have a light robin’s egg blue hue under indoor lighting. The larger crystal is a twin and they all appear to be naturally terminated.

I began selling gems and minerals and studying gemology in the late 1980’s. I travelled around the states with gem/mineral and craft shows for a couple of years before settling in Gainesville, FL where I opened a shop called The White Cloud. In 1992, I got a job counseling, packed all the store stuff away and forgot about it until now. What a surprise to find these beautiful crystals and minerals after all that time…
