Description
This stunning specimen showcases vibrant green, twinned Dioptase crystals gracefully resting on a contrasting Calcite matrix, sourced from the renowned mineral deposits of the Republic of Congo. The Dioptase crystals exhibit exceptional transparency and luster, with their deep emerald-green hue catching the light beautifully. The well-defined twinning enhances the crystal's geometric complexity, adding to its visual appeal. The Calcite matrix provides a striking contrast, further emphasizing the brilliance of the Dioptase. This remarkable combination of minerals not only makes for a highly desirable collector’s piece but also serves as a testament to the intricate geological processes that create such breathtaking natural formations.

Dioptase Sales Data
How this data is collected: Our system continuously monitors mineral listings from authorized dealer partners across the internet. We have explicit permission from all dealers whose listings we track - any dealers who have not provided specific and explicit authorization are NOT listed and NOT tracked by our system. When a previously available listing is marked as sold or removed from sale, we record this as a completed transaction. While we cannot guarantee the exact final sale price (as negotiations may occur), this data represents publicly listed prices for specimens that have transitioned from "for sale" to "sold" status. This provides valuable market insights based on observable listing behavior patterns.
