Rare, multiple Red Beryl crystals, on Rhyolite matrix!

This very colorful, and attractive specimen features several crystals Red Beryl on a snow white Rhyolite matrix. As you can see in the pictures, the crystal quality is quite sharp, full of luster and gemmy, with the classic gooseberry color! Although I did see some Red Beryl specimens at the previous Denver & Tucson Shows, I did not see any such as this one, with multiple crystals on matrix. I acquired this piece a couple of years ago.

The latest news on the Violet mine is that the lower pit which produced the better quality specimens (like the ones featured here on my site), is now defunct. Although the upper pit is still some what active, the quality does not compare to those previosily mined from the lower pit. This makes good quality specimens much tougher to find.

The Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History in
Washington, D.C. refers to the Red Beryl it has on display as:
"The rarest Beryls of them all"


These come from only one specific location on the entire planet earth:
Violet Claims Mine, Wah Wah Mountains
Beaver County (near Milford), Utah

Measures in cm: 7.0 x 4.5 x 2.5
Crystal size in cm: 0.4

As you can see in the pictures, the crystal quality is quite sharp, full of luster and gemmy, with the classic gooseberry color! All the terminations are clean and sharp.

Rare, choice, multiple Red Beryl crystals on Rhyolite matrix!

This is the largest specimen of the world famous Red Beryl on Rhyolite matrix,
that I am offering for sale here!
It features two larger (1.0 + 1.3 cm. long!) Red Beryl crystals,
surrounded by several smaller ones,
elegantly perched on a bright white Rhyolite matrix.
There is some crazing throughout this crystal cluster, but no damage.
This is rather typical in Red Beryl crystals of this size.
Still, they display very good color, hexagonal terminations, and are gemmy!


Overall, this is a very visually striking larger piece!
You will not find many of these out there, priced so reasonably well!
Trimmed to display very well on its bottom side.
