Emerald from
Coscuez Mine, San Pablo de Borbur, Western Boyacá Province, Boyacá Department, Colombia
here is one nicely formed little gemmy emerald crystal in a bit of white matrix. Yes, this is true emerald! and the color is definitely better than it appears in the pictures. My camera somehow just doesn't capture the beautiful vibrancy of the emerald. You can see that it is a complete euhedral crystal, and it is quite prominent.
purchased in New York in 2003 for $650
