Item Description
Goshenite (colorless beryl) is actually amongst the rarest of the beryls. From the Erongo Mountains, you certainly see a ton of aquamarines for every goshenite that turns up. This complete all-around, pristine and translucent crystal has smooth, glassy faces with crackly interiors. The scattered embedded schorl pencils are a very nice accent. You can see the aquamarine blue core on the cleaved base. Nifty.
