Natural Phenakite Ring Gemstone, Flawless Phenakite Stone, Rare Phenakite Loose Gem, High Fire Collector Wedding Ring Stone

Boasting diamond-like brilliance and supreme crystal purity, this 2.15 Carat Natural Russian Phenakite (Phenacite) brings one of the rarest beryllium minerals on Earth straight to your workbench. Precision-cut into an 8.5 x 8 mm Rectangle shape, this gem offers custom studio jewelers and bench goldsmiths a standard 8.5x8mm footprint that seats smoothly into standard rectangular prong, halo, or bezel mountings with zero lapidary adjustments.

Sourced from the historical mineral deposits of the Ural Mountains in Russia, this exceptional specimen is 100% natural and untreated, displaying a completely colorless, water-clear body with flawless eye-clean transparency. Because phenakite possesses a very high refractive index (1.650–1.670) and exceptional Mohs hardness (7.5–8.0), it delivers intense white brilliance and fire that rivals fine diamond and white sapphire. It serves as an extraordinary focal point for alternative bridal designs, custom solitaire rings, or high-end rare mineral showpieces.
