A NOTE FROM NICK
THIS IS EXQUISITE!!!  Superb and Very Unique and Exceptional Rare Extra Large (almost 30 cm Long) Dioptase and Drusy Dolomite Museum Specimen. This stunning piece showcases beautiful long crystals and with Shattuckite included in the Matrix. The Long Prismatic Emerald Green Sparkling Dioptase Crystals are all coated with Drusy Dolomite Clear Crystallisation, distinguishing it very clearly from normal Dioptase Specimens.  There is a little Shattuckite area on the side.  I am not certain that these photos do this piece full justice. I have seen much more inferior specimens of half this size selling at $10 000-R$14000 and this one is 5.89 kg and unique and in excellent condition, so it could easily have been 2-3 times this price! 

This is definitely a one of a kind specimen and is a huge size for Dioptase. Did I mention EXQUISITE?  More photos or videos can be arranged if needed. (email nick@toprocks.com) as it is a seriously impressive and stately Museum Piece worthy of being in the center of any top Mineral collection.
