Item Description
Beryllonite is rare sodium-beryllium phosphate found in granite pegmatites. This is a gemmy, colorless, single floater crystal with typical irregular, tabular form and comes from the famous Type Locality. It comes with an expertly written, faded accession label from an old museum collection we traded into (dating to prior to World War I). Highly desirable and uncommnon.
