Diaspore

Item Description

Diaspore is not necessarily a rare mineral, but fine gem quality material is certainly hard to find. When it comes to transparent Diaspore, there are only a few places in the world for the material, and the most famous material comes from the Selçuk District in Turkey. This stone is a lovely pale straw colored, "Trillion" cut gem with very very slight inclusions. It's hard to find good gem Diaspores today becuase the entire locality has been purchased as a large commercial operation, so the supply is under control by a single operator now. If you collect rare gems, don't miss out on this little beauty for a great price.
