MATERIAL: Natural untreated BERYL variation HELIODOR. Name comes from Greek “Helios Doron” meaning “Sun Given”. Heliodor from Volodarsk Volynskii is found in several beautiful and valued colors. From pastel green to green-yellow to vivid yellow to rarest and most expensive rich “virgin olive oil” Green. These rich green stones jumped over 500% in value since 2003 and the biggest price increase is yet to come.


ORIGIN: Khoroshiv (Volodarsk Volynskii), UKRAINE   Source of absolutely best, most valued Heliodor ever discovered! Mines were closed since 2004. Because of current political and military crisis in Ukraine, mining activities were renewed and these super rare gems are once again available in limited quantities to the worlds market. Each crystal must be “hand delivered” over the Ukrainian border into the European Union. I have the best direct contact for all qualities and types of these absolutely amazing gemstones.
