Item Description
Here's something you don't see every day. This matched pair of stones have bright green color, virtually eye clean clarity and "Round" cuts Chrome Diopside is a very rare gem considering that the only good rough comes from one place in the world (which has a shortened mining season due to the tremendous amount of annual snowfall), and the large percentage of the stones on the market are less than 1 carat. It is very very difficult to find this material in clean stones and inclusions are accepted by most collectors and dealers, so not only do these stones have excellent eye clean clarity but would make for a great pair of earrings!
