Beryl var. Goshenite - highly etched crystal
Urucum Mine, Galileia
Minas Gerais, Brazil
5.6 x 3.5 x 1.8 CM (small cabinet/ large miniature)
price: $340
Spring 2020
Perfect, gem clear and absolutely colorless, this looks just like ice. A natural sculpture of an etched Beryl crystal, this is also a complete floater, every surface is complexly faceted, etched and undamaged. Not many minerals can exhibit this degree of sculptural etching, however we do see this with Beryl from a few finds and these can be incredible in person. True colorless Beryl (Goshenite) is also quite uncommon, this specimen is displayable from any side or angle, the larger faces are smoothly curved yet striated and it is fully transparent with no inclusions, veils or cracks. Choice.
