Product Description

Experts about Chrome Diopside: "Even today, fine emeralds are as as scarce and costly, as they are beautiful. And, there also remains a bit of chicanery in the emerald market with misgraded, treated and lab-created gemstones offered to the consumer. If you are considering the purchase of an emerald, you should also consider the other green gemstones - chrome tourmaline, tsavorite garnet and chrome diopside. They challenge more traditional emeralds with exciting variations in colour, greater durability and tantalizing optical ***** Chrome diopside exhibits a lush green which calls to mind darkly shaded tropical rain forest." Judith Anderson GG, GGA (Emerald and the Great Pretenders/Internet) "Chrome diopside has a beautiful rich green color. It is the most affordable gemstone with a pure rich green colour" ( International Colored Gemstone Association).
