Superb rough and cut set of aragonite from this classic Bohemian locality. The aragonite crystal, which measures 6.1 x 1.5 x 1.2 cm, is transparent and almost completely gem quality. It has a sharp termination and only has a few edge nibbles; otherwise, it is of superb quality for the locality. The cut stone, faceted by Nancy Pritchard in a custom cut, weighs 18.52 carats. The cutting is impeccable, with sharp facet joins and an incredibly brilliant appearance for the material. Photograph by Joe Budd.
