Aquamarine Nestled in Snow-White Albite with Smoky Quartz & Garnet Accents

Delicate pegmatitic choreography unfolds in this hand-sized miniature. The focal aquamarine (14 mm) sports razor-sharp hexagonal faces and a cool, glacial-blue core. It nestles against a lightly frosted smoky-quartz crystal whose surfaces are dusted by albite, creating a dramatic colour-block of ice-blue and café-smoke. The matrix consists of stellar albite sub-rosettes—creamy, pearly blades piled like fresh snowfall. Scattered on the reverse are pin-head crimson garnets (almandine-spessartine series), a rare chromatic accent that confirms a boron- and manganese-enriched fluid pulse late in the pocket’s history. At just 70 g, the piece balances textural depth with display convenience; no repairs or polishing.
