From this famous locality comes a pleasing Dioptase piece with crystals grown on Calcite and Duftite. Dioptase is brilliantly lustrous with intense emerald-green color and very sharp, perfect crystals. One of them is doubly terminated. The quality is superior. The crystals are gem with marvelous neon blue and green nuances. White Calcite and lighter green crystals probably Duftite (the mineral is not examined). In good condition – very small contacts and nicks. On acrylic base.

Splendid!
