Light-coloured inclusions and veining break across the surface of individual pieces, and the stone carries a gentle translucence at the edges where the polish is thinnest. The surface is smooth and cool to the touch, with a finish that reads clean under light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChrysoprase is traditionally associated with optimism and an open, positive outlook, and is commonly chosen by those seeking a heart-centred, uplifting presence in daily life. It is often held during quiet reflection, kept as a desk companion, or carried through the day as a steadying touchstone. Some also value it as a stone of renewal, supporting a gentle sense of personal growth over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Properties\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePrimary Focus: Love \u0026amp; Compassion\u003cbr\u003eSecondary Focus: Transformation \u0026amp; Growth\u003cbr\u003eChakra Association: Heart, Sacral\u003cbr\u003eAlternate Birthstone: May\u003cbr\u003eZodiac Sign: Libra, Taurus\u003cbr\u003eChinese Zodiac: Rabbit, Goat\u003cbr\u003eRuling Planet: Venus\u003cbr\u003eElements: Earth, Water\u003cbr\u003eMohs Hardness: 7\u003cbr\u003eStone Family: Tectosilicate\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Chrysoprase\u003cbr\u003eOrigin: Peru\u003cbr\u003eForm: Palm Stone\u003cbr\u003eFinish: Polished\u003cbr\u003eApproximate Size: 62-68 mm (2.4-2.6 inches)\u003cbr\u003eApproximate Weight: 110 g\u003cbr\u003eListing: Single unit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeological Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChrysoprase is a chalcedony variety of the quartz family, silicon dioxide of the trigonal system at a Mohs hardness of 7. Its apple-to-deep-green colour comes from nickel impurities, making it the only chalcedony coloured by that element, and quality material shows an intense, translucent green often compared to fine jade. It is commonly sold in the trade under the name \"Australian Jade,\" though this is a misleading trade name, since Chrysoprase is genuinely chalcedony, not jade at all. Chrysoprase was used in ancient Greece and Rome, was reportedly worn by Alexander the Great, and decorates the 14th-century St Wenceslas Chapel in Prague, one of the more specific European historical references for any retail crystal. While Queensland, Australia is the primary commercial source, with further deposits in Poland, Tanzania, Brazil, and the USA, this material is supplier-noted as sourced from Peru.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuturaSol Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach natural stone is selected for its authenticity, geological integrity, and energetic clarity.
