CHRYSOPRASE and FRESHWATER PEARL NECKLACE

Classic necklace of rough cut Chrysoprase and high luster freshwater pearls.




Chrysoprase is one of the Star Signs for Gemini. It is said to represent gentleness, and bring soothing, friendly, spiritual protection, prevent depression, and increase grace and equilibrium.

The gemstone Chrysoprase is an opalescent apple green colored variety of chalcedony (quartz). Most green stones owe their color to chromium or vanadium, but chrysoprase derives its color from the nickel content. It is found in Australia, Brazil, the Ural Mountains, and the U.S. and is the rarest of the chalcedony group.

Chrysoprase was used by the Greeks, Romans, and the Egyptians in jewelry and other ornamental objects and because of its semi-opaque green color, it is often mistaken for Imperial jadeite. One of the most valuable chalcedony gem stones, chrysoprase is prized for its color and rarity, it is a 7 on the Mohs scale of hardness.



Strung on flexwire, and the ends are finished with sterling silver beads. Features a Celtic style sterling silver clasp with cross bar, which will not accidently open while being worn. 24 inches in length.

CONDITION: New from Ted Rice Designs.
