Item Description
A slender, gemmy, DOUBLY-TERMINATED crystal of chromium-rich diopside from a recent find in Pakistan. It is the chromium that gives these crystals their rich green color (as with so called "chrome" tourmalines and other gem crystals that get their green color from chromium content).
