🔎 Collector Notes

Teal dioptase crystal clusters set in pockets across a rugged quartz-rich matrix. A dioptase mineral specimen from Namibia.

Dioptase is about 5 on the Mohs scale and has perfect cleavage, so handle gently and avoid knocks or ultrasonic cleaning.

In crystal traditions dioptase is called the “Stone of the Heart”. This is a cultural note, not a health claim.
