Gemmy single crystal. Beryllonite was previously very rare until good crystals started coming out of Brazil recently associated with Brazilianite. Then big crystals started to appear from the pegmatites of Pakistan, however while large, most are opaque white crystals. This one is unusually gemmy and is facet quality in areas, 3 x 3 x 2 cm.
