Chrysoprase is a green-colored variety of chalcedony, a type of quartz.

  1. Color: Polish chrysoprase typically exhibits a range of green hues, similar to chrysoprase from other sources. The color can vary from light green to deeper shades, often with a vibrant and pleasing tone.

  2. Hardness: On the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, chrysoprase has a hardness of 6.5 to 7, which means it is moderately hard. This makes it suitable for use in jewelry but requires care to prevent scratching.

  3. Clarity: Chrysoprase can vary in clarity, from opaque to translucent. Translucent specimens are highly valued for their visual appeal.

  4. Luster: Chrysoprase usually displays a vitreous to waxy luster, giving it a smooth and somewhat shiny appearance when polished.

  5. Density: The density of chrysoprase can vary depending on its composition and impurities but generally falls within the range of 2.6 to 2.7 g/cm³.

  6. Metaphysical Properties: Chrysoprase is believed to promote love, compassion, and forgiveness. It is often used in crystal healing practices to heal emotional wounds and promote emotional balance. It is said to uplift the spirit, promote optimism, and bring joy into one's life.
