3.9"D Tiffany Stone Sphere Bertrandite Gemstone Ball - Utah, sr5

Dale, the spheremaker, made this Tiffany Stone (Bertrandite) sphere and he did an outstanding job.
The material is of the best quality, has a very desirable deep purple color, and beautiful patterns. The purple is in various shades, cream, light blue, white, black, pink, peach, and brown. This bertrandite sphere is fluorescent (green), very smooth except for a couple sections where it has an uneven feel, and it has a beautiful polish.
Bertrandite consists of various minerals like opalite, fluorite, manganese, as well as very small amounts of beryllium. It is commercially mined primarily for its beryllium content but some of it makes it to the minerals market for us to enjoy. One word of caution though: dust from elemental beryllium is toxic and a known carcinogen. Lucky for us mineral collectors and according to my research, beryllium occurs in nature only chemically combined with minerals and its mostly known forms are emerald (beryl) and bertrandite. Although the material of this sphere is considered non toxic, please treat it with respect and do not lick it or make tea from it... This "word of caution" is just that. It also serves as a reminder for those who have worked with bertrandite and to inform the buyers not familiar with it.
This tiffany stone sphere is absolutely gorgeous and a rare collector's item.
Its approximate weight is 3 lbs, and it has about 3.9" diameter (99 mm).
Please note that there are many more photos of this tiffany stone sphere following the description. The photos were taken outdoors in sunlight and from different angles and therefore, color differences from the actual sphere are possible.
