Item Description
Very rich emerald-green, highly lustrous and partially gemmy dioptase crystals in an aesthetic parallel-growth cluster from the Christoff Mine. Complete all-around and in excellent shape. Part of the termination on the back is etched and is partially filled with clay. Charlie Key dealer stock. A fine thumbnail and MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON! The gemminess and rich green color were difficult to capture.
