Item Description

A classic greenish-yellow color, gemmy yellow-green crystal of Heliodor Beryl with the classic etching patterns from the famous discovery in the Ukraine in the 1980s. This locality is world renowned for these highly sought after and admired Heliodor specimens. The classic color, etching and unique appearance (the top of the crystal is hollowed out like a castle turret) make them a staple of any gem crystal collection. These specimens are rarely seen on the market today, and a beaitufl crystal such as this with such excellent gemminess is certainly desirable. It is certainly an attractive thumbnail sized gem crystal of this classic material. BETTER IN PERSON, hard to find nowadays!
