It is named after its first discovery in the town of "Qushin" in Massachusetts, USA. The stone features high hardness, making it resistant to scratching and ideal for use in jewelry. Despite lacking the brilliance of diamonds, its exceptional clarity made it a historic choice for making eyeglass lenses before the development of modern glass manufacturing. Today, enthusiasts and collectors value it as a natural and elegant alternative to transparent stones, and it remains an important industrial source for extracting the element beryllium.
