Chrysoprase crystallizes is a form of silica, in the same form as chalcedony making it an interesting stone.
It is made by distinctive deposits of nickel in the stone that gives it its famous bold green colour, which can range from apple green to a deep dark green.

Interestingly the crystals in chrysoprase are very fine ( this is what the cryptocrystalline relates to) meaning they can't be seen under a microscope. Chrysoprase has been popular for thousands of years due to its bright colour,

The name chrysoprase comes from the Greek chrysos meaning 'gold' and prason, meaning 'leek' or 'bloom'. The Greeks bestowed this name due to the presence of the golden drops that appear to be contained in the stone.

This item would make the perfect gift for a loved friend, family member, or simply if you wanted to treat yourself. Wether you are buying one stone to sit in your pocket or multiple for your trinket dish they are sure to brighten up your home.

Metaphysically - believed to be good for balancing the yin-yang and aligning chakras. Chrysoprase is sometimes called "Australian Jade" for its brilliant green coloring.

Chrysoprase was used by many ancient cultures in ornamental objects and jewelry including the Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans. It was even believed to have the power to turn the wearer invisible. Prussia's Frederick the Great so loved the stone that he commissioned two tables made of chrysoprase. Chrysoprase is even mentioned in the Bible and is therefore considered to be the tenth in the walls of heaven.
