A few years ago we encountered a small parcel of faceted Brazilian Diopside with an unusually saturated ‘chrome’ green bodycolor. Of course, Russia is the classic source for these but this Brazilian material has the advantage of a lighter tone so the gems are overall much brighter. Unfortunately, this was a small find and the gems were heavily included - we selected just one or two as fine enough to offer here. This is one of the best - great color, well cut and with no distracting or problematic inclusions. One of the rarer color varieties we have encountered.
