Only a short note, the pictured reflector is a Firefly reflector.
There are the followed reflectors available:
From l. to r. : "Violet me", Double Beryl, Pumpkin Spice, Blue Moon, Firefly
"Violet me" is a one of a kind reflector. Only double beryl was done in two runs means 40 pieces are existing. All other reflectors only 20 are existing.
There is also a first green reflector done by Hogo without a cool name:
This reflector is existing only 12 times.
At all good luck with your search. This reflectors are not easy to get...

Thanks for the additions! I would take any if possible. As far as I remember, the double beryl was coated with the same material that covers the inside of the integrating spheres?

I do not think that this spheres are coated with GITD stuff. I think it is some kind of white matte color to ensure the light will be reflected into all directions.
The original HDS white diffuse reflectors are also a little bite more diffuse than the HDS GITD reflectors. The only exception is the Firefly since the surface structure ensures a extreme diffuse reflection.
But anyway the white diffuse and the GITD reflectors done by HDS are all not easy to find.
Maybe when I have time I will make my own white diffuse reflector. I would have everything (airbrush, white color, ...), but as always lack of time.

But it looks like crushed emerald, if it really is aluminum and beryllium silicate, or beryllium aluminate, or some other compound
