Marvelous quality specimen from the type locality for Dioptase with striking gem crystals. Dioptase crystals are up to 12mm, brilliantly lustrous with dark emerald-green color and very sharp, perfectly terminated crystals. They grow on the both sides of the host base. Many crystals are doubly terminated. The quality is superior. The crystals are gem with marvelous neon green nuances. The Calcite on the base adds a nice contrast. In very good condition – some nicks and outside edges contacts.

Adorable Dioptase specimen!
