    Product Description for Min .10ct Mm Varies Emerald Cut Bixbite

    Bixbite is rare red beryl, ranging from orange-red through deep red shades to purple-red. Bixbite's cousins in the beryl family include a range of colorful stones like aquamarine, emerald, heliodor, morganite, and goshenite. It ranks 7.5 to 8 on Mohs' hardness scale, making it a durable stone. Named for mineral collector Maynard Bixby, bixbite is found only in a few locations in the western U.S. and possibly in Mexico. Gem-quality bixbite is incredibly rare.

    "I had never seen a Bixbite before so I ordered 2 small ones. One was 30 points not ten. Unfortunately it looked like it had a fracture in the stone so I'm sending them back. Its a lovely gem and maybe one day I will be able to afford a really nice one. Even though I'm sending them back I'd still recommend this stone, its the most gorgeous color red that I have ever seen."

    "Very small, but I can't really afford the larger sizes and after listening to the hosts describe it a few times, I figured it was worth having even just a small one in my collection. There was no picture, but this one looks much like many of the other pictures. The cut is good, no scratches or chips. Color is very red on this one. Mine weighed .12, so very close to posted weight."
