Chrysopraas - Chrysopraas Chips/Brokken (Tanzania) - Chrysopraas

The green tones are exactly what drew me in—vivid and natural, with that earthy chrysoprase glow you hope for. I’ve been sorting through the chunks for a wire-wrapping project, and the variety in size keeps things interesting.

The greens in these chips are exactly what I was hoping for—that soft, apple-like tone with enough variation between pieces to keep it interesting. They arrived clean and dry, no dust coating them, which I appreciate since I use them for small mosaic work.

The Tanzanian chunks have a nice depth to the green, not too pale or too dark, and they feel solid in the hand. I wish the listing gave a better sense of the size range, since it's a bit of a grab bag, but the color is consistent across the pieces I received.
