19" Lemon Chrysoprase Necklace

"The Stone of Settlement" Lemon Chrysoprase is best known for it's ability to build a bridge for the leaping of a new direction into life. An attractive milky green rock composed mainly of magnesite, Lemon Chrysoprase, is a nickel stained, silicified magnesite, commonly found in association with Chrysoprase. It is also known as Citron Chrysoprase. Lemon Chrysoprase owes its unusual colours to nickel salts, which are leached from ultramafic rocks by hot, percolating ground waters. Chrysoprase has been used as a decorative stone since ancient times. A favorite of Frederick the Great of Prussia, chrysoprase can be seen decorating many buildings in Prague, including the Chapel of St Wenceslas.
