Item Description
Gemmy, highly lustrous, deep emerald-green dioptase crystals form an aesthetic thumbnail. The jackstraw nature of the cluster adds much presence. The rich color is excellent and the gemminess is very apparent under bright light. The crystals are contacted across the top, but there is very little actual bruising. The contact at the right crystal intersection is noted, but has very minimal impact to the display quality. Choice material from the Charlie Key dealer stock. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
