Item Description
Stunning thumbnail of gemmy, very lustrous Dioptase, with a thin coating of Shattuckite and matrix along the back and near the base. The main Dioptase crystal is about 2.3 cm long and .8 cm wide near the termination. The smaller crystals add balance and more beauty to the piece. The pictures do tell the story here. This is a very aesthetic, killer thumbnail-sized specimen
