Emerald – Habachtal, Pinzgau, Austria
 Former collection of Dipl.-Ing. K. Kontrus, Vienna

 Colour-intensive emerald crystal of 1.4 cm length with particularly good transparency in biotite schist.
 Emeralds from the Habach Valley are among the absolute Alpine classics. Not least because, apart from Norway, there are hardly any other deposits in Europe. Even in international comparisons, the intensely green gemstones from the Alps hold their own.
