Item Description
Chkalovite is a very rare Sodium Beryllium Silicate that is only found in a few places around the world. This stone is the very first facetted Chkalovite that I have seen and offered for sale. I can't imagine that many rare stone collectors even have one of these in their collections. The stone is colorless, with very slight inclusions and an "Oval" cut. I cannot promise if I will ever have another one of these stones to offer, so do not miss this one. This gem is also the largest Chkalovite that I have had to offer in the auctions to date.
