Natural Heliodor

Natural Heliodor Light yellow-green (Greek-present of the Sun). Discovered in 1910 as apprent new variety in Namibia, but beryls of the same color were previously known in Brazil and Madagascar. Since there is no clear distinction possible in the yellow and green-yellow tones in comparison to golden beryl, heliodors are generally rejected as an independent precious beryl variety and rather are counted among the weak-colored golden beryls.

There are 23 Heliodor(s) organised in the following categories: Carving SingleFacet LotFacet SingleRough,  gemstones. Price of our Heliodor range from USD 12.00 to USD 600.00 and all gemstones are 100% natural. No lab, created or synthetic gemstones.

We grade our stones with strict adherence to current GIA (Gemological Institute of America) standards for color, tone, hue, saturation and clarity and all gems are identified and graded only by GIA certified gemologists.
