Aesthetics of a specimen

This blue apatite is a beautiful crystal and it’s clear it’s aesthetic by itself.
But when paired with another crystal, another species, an extra dimension is made, not only on the associations in the mine, but also in a remarkable aesthetic result.
These two individuals complete harmony.
Some people have made the comparison with the association of the Virgin and Child.
Roger.

Beautiful specimen, Roger, Thans for sharing. Panasqueira has always been one of my favorite localities.
