Item Description

An outstanding specimen of lustrous, deep emerald green Dioptase on an underlying black matrix from the classic Tsumeb mine in Namibia. A few dozen, sharp, textbook, 5 mm to 1.7 cm, well-formed Dioptase crystals are mounded and rounded to cover the entire matrix on this sparkling miniature. These exceptionally bright crystals all have a rich, translucent, variegated emerald green color showing numerous internal reflections that add even more sparkle to the already vibrant crystals! This miniature is quite three-dimensional with its mounded character and rather large and distinct crystals. In excellent condition all around!
