Beryl
The beryl family is composed of some of the most recognizable names in the gem world: aquamarine, morganite, and emerald. All of these are essentially the same base gemstone, differing only in the impurities contained within the crystal lattice. It is those impurities that impart color. Other varieties include heliodor (golden beryl), chrome/vanadium beryl, and goshenite (white/clear beryl). Without impurities, all beryl would be water-white goshenite.
Below you'll find a small selection of the beryls that we've cut and sold over the years.
