Chrome Diopside (superb color)

Item Description

Here's something you don't see every day. This stone is a fantastic, intense green color, VS clarity "Oval" cut gemstone of Chrome Diopside. 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. A good representative stone of this hard to find gem.
