Lot of Two Excellent green gemstone also known as the 'Russian Emerald'.
Mined in Siberia only ~3 months of the year this rare and excellent gemstone is gorgeous despite the technical name of Chrome (green)Diopside. Totally untreated, excellent cutting with great color and clarity. This is everything the most excellent emerald wishes it could be.
JTV:Chrome diopside has several origins, but most of the finest material, and the only commercially viable deposit, is in the Republic of Sakha in Siberia, Russia. As you can imagine, production of this Siberian treasure is sporadic due to extreme winters that last more than eight months. The vivid greens of chrome diopside are a welcome alternative to rare and pricey emerald or tsavorite garnet, but has yet to gain mainstream recognition due to its limited availability. Minor sources of chrome diopside include Australia, Austria, Canada, Finland, Italy, Madagascar, South Africa, and United States
