Bixbite

[RockHugger]

The largest crystal is 3.5cts (w/o matrix) and the smaller crystal is 1ct, and double terminated.

You have seen the 2 smaller faceted ones, but they have now rejoined their family!

Great stones, RockHugger. And pretty clean, as I can see. Where did you get such large and beautiful chrystals? All that I have seen were pretty small.

The proper nomeclature is "Red Beryl" The old synonym "bixbite" is deprecated from the CIBJO. Not that it really matters or anything..LOL..figured I would add that tidbit of info. Bixbite is to close to bixbyite.
