Item Description

Dioptase on Calcite is one of THE signature combinations from the great Tsumeb Mine. GEMMY and superbly lustrous, these Dioptase crystals practically radiate their beautiful, deep, emerald-green color. The largest crystal is a full 1.5 cm, and the Dioptases are spread out across the Calcite with a nice, attractive balance so that each can be appreciated for its own beauty. Wonderful aesthetics and relative rarity are signature characteristics of this choice, highly aesthetic miniature.Valued $2500. ex George Elling Collection
