CHRYSOPRASE ROUGH CUTTING
Beautiful Chrysoprase Rough Cutting Aussie stone. An amazing colour for a rough stone of pale apple green. Once polished it will be quite striking. Usually reserved for jewellers, quality specimens like this are hard to come by and attract high prices. A great Aussie Gemstone. At 140g this is a larger specimen and worthy for any collection, but I think it will be made into jewellery. Some of the photos shown are back-lit with a torch to show the depth of colour and quality.
Location:
Maryborough, Queensland, Australia.
Dimensions:
6.6cm x 8.1cm x 3.5cm, 166g.
