The name comes from the Greek word for glass, and this form was first described by mineralogist Abraham Gottlob Werner.

They are especially prized by collectors for exceptional specimens of aquamarine beryl, schorl, fluorite, and jeremejevite, with many other minerals found as well-formed, aesthetic crystals. The area is also notable as the type locality for cheralite, and it remains one of Namibia’s most important mineral localities for distinctive cabinet and thumbnail specimens.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Crystal Castle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48770280489115,"sku":null,"price":11.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0336\/3012\/6217\/files\/80892fa7-df47-480a-9b20-1c789d204cbd_8a77fb33-6dd3-4de4-a3ee-666af07be973.jpg?v=1781485262","url":"https:\/\/www.overtonfamilyjewels.com\/products\/auction-win-64c13e1c-b581-482e-8b38-3cddcc31986a","provider":"OFJ's Crystal Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
