Wow. I think the scale on the dop is the nicest piece of "included" chrysoprase I've ever seen.

Your scale there has changed the way I've always looked at (and for) chrysoprase. Always tried to get the cleanest translucent rough with good consistent color saturation, avoiding anything with other characteristics. Now I'll also be hoping I can find some that looks like your piece. Thanks for posting it.

It is the my favourite too Vince and I have worked with lots of chrysoprase and this one just glows. I wish I could find more of it.
