Photo #339Beryl from NH (Tripp Mine) with a Pastel Ball Python (+Het for Gravel or YB). Due to the lattice formation of the stone: trying to create perfectly round specimens results in the stone cleaving again and again into successively smaller pieces. I have created a few perfect tumbled specimens (not shown yet), but, they are created largely by chance. The rough material I started with (from Roughstone Rock) is also so highly inclused with micah that it makes it more challenging than Brazilian Emeralds in a Smokey Quartz matrix. The structure of some pieces of this Beryl also lends itself to linear grooved imperfections in the texture which reduce the sheen of the polish, but, when viewed at a precise angle will create an awesome sparkle (unable to capture with camera).
