This specimen is very intriguing for its chemistry (cesium rich), crystal habit, and luster. The luster is incredible, it is very flashy and was very difficult to photo. It is also complete all the way around - no contact points. It must have been a floater and as the Willard Roberts label states, it was found in a new pocket in 1949. It is not your typical Beryl crystal either as it is flat or tabular and has very complex faces.
