Description: Dioptase Crystals with Calcite, Tsumeb Mine, Namibia This thumbnail presents a lustrous group of flashy, teal-green Dioptase crystals topped with a sprinkling of sugary, sparkling calcite for a lovely, highly aesthetic presentation. Crystals, up to 7mm, have textbook habit with mirror-like, striated faces. Like so many Tsumeb pieces, this was likely smuggled out of the mine hidden in a worker’s dungarees or boots. Accordingly, this piece has some minor bird nips when examined under magnification, and the back side has minor clipping. Neither detract from the presentation. Sourced directly from notable Tsumeb collector Clive Queit almost forty years ago and has been in a private collection ever since. Size: 22x20x10 mm. REF: MF-12-51.
