Item Description
An aesthetic cluster of gemmy, highly lustrous, deep emerald-green dioptase crystals. The 3.0 cm crystal dominates the jackstraw cluster and adds much presence. The rich color is excellent and the gemminess is very apparent under bright light. Contacting and periphery wear are noted. One prism face of the large crystal is contacted, where another dioptase crystal once lay, but there is no damage,per se. This remains a rich, showy, highly representative, 360-degree miniature. Excellent material from the Charlie Key dealer stock. BETTER IN PERSON!!!
