Item Description

Scintillating, very gemmy, rich emerald-green dioptase crystals, to 8 mm, cover the matrix on this rich and aesthetic thumbnail from famed Tsumeb. The gemminess, luster and color saturation is way above average for Tsumeb making photography difficult. Valued by well-known Tsumeb collector and dealer Marshall Sussman at $500. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
