Product Details

Straight from the legendary Wah Wah Mountains of Utah – the ONLY place on Earth where gem-quality red beryl (bixbite) has ever been found in facetable sizes! 🇺🇸⛰️ ✨ Specs: • Weight: 1.32 carats • Size: 7.60 mm round • Origin: Wah Wah Mountains, Beaver County, Utah • Cut: Vintage 1980's – old stock, cut when the mine was actively producing • Species: Red Beryl (Bixbite) – the "Red Emerald" 💎 Why this matters: Red beryl is estimated to be 1,000x rarer than emerald. The Wah Wah deposit is essentially played out, and vintage 80's-cut material like this is becoming impossible to find. This is a true collector's stone – heavily included natural material showing the classic raspberry-red bixbite color, cut decades ago by a lapidary who had access to rough that no longer exists on the market. 📜 A killer addition to any locality collection, beryl suite, or rare gemstone case. Comes in gem jar as pictured.
