About This Chrysoprase

Chrysoprase is a soft apple-green chalcedony, translucent in the best pieces, with a quiet color that sits somewhere between jade and mint. The color comes from nickel, not chromium like you'd expect from most greens.

Hand-selected from Alaotra-Mangoro, Madagascar.

Traditionally Used For

Those who work with chrysoprase often turn to it for opening to connection, with yourself and others, working through difficult feelings at your own pace, and coming back to yourself with kindness. It's traditionally linked to the heart chakra. If that resonates, keep it nearby during quiet moments or by the bed for rest. How you use it is up to you.

These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.

Care and Use

Sensitivity Low

Chrysoprase sits at 6.5-7 on the Mohs scale, about as hard as glass, so it handles daily use but will scratch against harder stones. Keep chemical cleaners away from it; they can etch the surface.

Questions Before You Buy

Is this real chrysoprase, and is it heated, dyed or treated?

Natural chrysoprase from Alaotra-Mangoro, Madagascar. Untreated.

Will I get the exact pieces in the photos?

You'll receive pieces from the same batch photographed, weighed to the amount you choose. Every piece passes our quality control and meets or exceeds what you see in the photos. Single specimens are listed separately and say so.

What size are the pieces, and how many are in a pound?

Each piece measures 1 to 2 inches on its longest side and weighs 20 to 50 grams. About 12 to 20 pieces per pound at this size, and each option shows its piece count.

What does A grade mean?

Grades reflect visual quality within a batch. A is standard, with typical inclusions. AA shows stronger color, cleaner surfaces and tighter sizing. AAA is the top 10 to 15 percent of a batch. Every lot is inspected and graded by our team in Rockville, Maryland, not taken on the supplier’s word.

Where does it come from, and how do you know?

This batch is from Alaotra-Mangoro, Madagascar. It came to us through a community partnership, one of the sourcing models we publish and stand behind.
