COMMENTS: This stone is fine example of a Tashmarine diopside from the The Silk Road in China. It is very rare and originates from a mine which has flooded out and was last know to be no longer producing gem rough. Any Tashmarines currently on the market are most likely old stock. This stone is a pretty green with concave facets on the crown and pavillion which is typical of trademarked "Tashmarine". This stone comes in a collector rosewood box and has a certificate of authenticity from the mine owner.
