Chrysoprase Earring & Pendant Set
This lovely stone is Chrysoprase. It is the most valuable form of chalcedony and often mistaken for jadeite.
It is a beautiful translucent green with a very slight blue quality. Imagine it as the color of the ocean with an overcast sky above. Some have described it as the color of the essential energy of a thriving plant.
According to an ancient Byzantine manuscript, Chrysoprase was believed to promote presence of mind, strengthen vision, and to relieve intestinal pain.
The set includes the earrings and the pendant. The earrings and pendant are slightly less then 1 inch with 14x10mm stones that are expertly matched for color and clarity. All metal is 14KT.
