Beautiful, gemmy and lustrous, dark emerald-green dioptase crystals to 1.0 cm totally cover the sculptural, curved, gossan crust on this very rich and fine specimen from recent finds at the Kaokoveld area of Namibia. Pristine, except for trivial periphery wear. Highly representative for the species and locale.
