Gemmy Heliodor (irradiated) ex Ford Coll.

Item Description

The termination of this very cute parallel-growth pair of rich yellow gem beryl crystals is water-clear. The attached crystals at the base and bit of albite add pizzazz. Complete all-around and pristine. This particular style/color from here are now generally accepted (by me at least) to be faked (irradiated aquamarine) and from Pakistan. For more info, See: http://www.mindat.org/loc-5384.html. Exceptional for what it is, and very pretty as a crystal. 22.89 carats of over 4 grams mass. Ex Mervyn Ford Collection.
