Goshenite
(colorless) beryl
Date - Pricing
as of April 2008
Color: Colorless or nearly so.
Colorless (almost colorless to 15% tone)
Comments - This material is fairly
common and there is a good market for clean faceted stones. In particular
larger stones cut in interesting designs sell well.
Pricing -
I generally price this material like I would a pale colored Beryl $38/ct
to $125/ct and a minimum of $150 for a small stone to cover the labor.
Special - As we all know as cutters some times a stone just comes
out "special" for what ever reason. On these kinds of stones I basically
price how ever I feel like. Because this stone comes under the "special"
category I often do not care if I sell the stone or not. So I usually price
it high enough that if I do sell it, I get a very good price. Enough to make
me say "Oh well..." and sell it. So be aware that some times I just
price a stone high because I do not care if I sell it. Ironically these stones
usually sell the fastest...
