Red Beryl is referred to by the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C., as "The Rarest Beryls of them all" !

These are found in only one specific location on the entire planet: The Violet Claims Mine, Wah Wah Mountains, Beaver County, Utah.

I am quite happy to finally present you with this new array of rare, and beautiful specimens listed below. Ranging in size from miniature to small cabinet each specimen is very unique, and of very high quality.

Each one displays very gemmy, perfectly terminated hexagonal crystals, with classic "gooseberry" color. Offset by the snowy white Rhyolite matrix, the contrast is simply awesome! Any one of these rare beauties will make a great addition to your collection.

PLEASE NOTE: All of the photographs are not to scale. Some are enlarged to give you an accurate and an in depth view of all the details for you to see. Please always refer to specimen size in all my listings for the actual size, as this is what the final price is based on. Although picture colors can vary slightly from browsers to computers, I go to great lengths in photographing all mineral specimens with complete color accuracy, without any retouching whatsoever! My photo studio lighting consists of 4800K fluorescent lighting, which simulates the wavelengths of daylight. In some cases for a different effect I have utilized regular incandescent lighting to provide a different effect. If a specimen has knowingly been repaired, I will always disclose this information to you.
