Dioptase

Item Description

Impressive cluster of over a dozen sharp, deep green Dioptase crystals that have superb luster. The centerpiece, but by no means the only good crystal, is a huge 2.7 cm Dioptase that towers above the matrix. Even with a contacted termination, it is quite impressive. The other Dioptases range from .7 cm DT'd gems up to lovely 2 cm crystals. As you can imagine with hard-rock mining like this, there are several contacted terminations, but to get a piece like this out at all is a minor miracle. A very fine Dioptase specimen - dramatic and aesthetic. valued $1200
