Found a huge Aquamarine for sale, never seen one in this size. Seller is asking $1.5m, what do you guys think? Cheap, fair or overpriced? I am trying to upload a picture, let's see if it will work |

^^This one is only $47,100. And has better color (although it might not be quite as big as the other). |

I am guessing it would make a really good paperweight. |

So what's it weigh ? I've been looking for another belly button jewel. That may be a bit too large though...hmmm, maybe if I mount it East-West ? |

There have been some truly enormous aquamarine crystals found. |

I'd hate to try cut and polish that monster. |

Yes, this gem-grade crystal mined in the 1950's weighed 56 pounds. Others that size and larger have been found. |

Maybe you could do up a wagon real pretty (gold-plated and diamond encrusted), set that aqua in it and pull it around behind you. |

Diamond encrusted gold rickshaw. I like the way you think! |

Summer villa on a Greek isle with a Ferrari in the garage, or a large blue rock? Let me think about it. |

ROTFLMAO!!! I don't think I would want a 1.5 mill paperweight though!! As someone who thinks most aquamarine is an overpriced greyish blue stone that doesn't look much better than glass, I find that price tag a bit hefty. Well, it is big, that's for sure. |

It is 2,226.5 carats. The stone looks very light blue but since they took the pic with the flash it might actually be a little darker. |
