Item Description
Absolutely scintillating, gemmy, rich emerald-green, dioptase crystals to 3-4 mm cover of the thin curved calcite crust on this very rich, classic and excellent combination specimen from Tsumeb and the Howard Belsky Collection. Very hard to capture the true color and gemminess of these crystals! We used 3 different lighting setups. Valued at $1500 and worth it. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
