Chrysoprase – XXS

Chrysoprase is a variety of chalcedony, a member of the quartz crystal family. Its green intensity is determined by the amount of nickel it contains. Previously, the only source of this rare crystal was in southwestern Poland. It is now found in Russia, Brazil, Madagascar, Tanzania, South Africa, Australia and the United States. In the Iron Age, this stone was a decorative part of Silesian carvings and masonry. King Frederick II of Prussia used chrysoprase to decorate his palace's halls in Potsdam near Berlin.

It is one of the most potent and most effective minerals that heals emotional wounds and helps withstand storms of depression and anxiety.
