This is exceptionally rare material with similar quality being found years ago from Tsumeb, Namibia.

A % of the deposit yielded specimens which have a brown patina on top of the beautifully green rich dioptase. Every single piece has been graded and priced according to quality by Nick May. Dioptase may appear common at the moment but once this deposit in finished could be a few decades before we get this quality again! Amazing classic specimens all grade and priced accordingly.
