Item Description

Gemmy and lustrous, deep emerald-green dioptase crystals form a very showy and aesthetic jackstraw cluster on this excellent specimen from recent finds in Namibia. The largest crystal is 1.2 cm. You don"t notice the bit of periphery wear on this striking crust. Highly representative of the species and locality. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON.
