Item Description

A wonderful "Alpine Type" specimen consisting of sharp, lustrous, GEM/gemmy, greenish-blue prismatic Diopside crystals. I personally have not seen many of them on the market in quite some time. A good specimen from one of the premier "cleft" localities in Pakistan. The largest Diopside crystal measures 9 mm long, and the piece is in great shape overall. A showy and three-dimensional small miniature piece of this classic and rarely seen association from Pakistan.
