This remarkable specimen showcases a beautifully clustered formation of sharp, tabular alkali-rich blue beryl from the Deo Darrah Mine in Afghanistan. The beryl crystals exhibit a vibrant sky-blue color, paired with superb luster and delicate translucency, giving the piece an ethereal presence. The individual crystals are well-formed, with the largest reaching up to 2 cm in width and notably displaying a rare and desirable doubly terminated habit.

The crystal faces are clean and well-defined, with multiple twinned formations contributing to the overall complexity and symmetry of the cluster. The arrangement feels naturally sculpted, with a refined aesthetic that reflects both mineralogical importance and visual elegance. Adding to the intrigue is a subtle association of tourmaline, which introduces additional contrast and depth without overpowering the soft elegance of the beryl.

This is an outstanding and highly collectible example of a rare beryl variety, distinguished by its exceptional quality, crystal clarity, and fine color. It’s an ideal addition for collectors focused on rare pegmatite minerals or those seeking uniquely beautiful miniature specimens.
