The Chrysoprase is fantastic. I absolutely love the beautiful, hazy coloration and the size and heft are perfect. Its energy is both like and unlike what I was expecting, or maybe it’s what I was expecting but in a different way than I was expecting. Either way, it’s quite strong and shall be very useful and beneficial for me.

Supply Chain for Chrysoprase

This Chrysoprase comes from artisanal miners in Peru. It comes from a shaft mine with a low environmental impact and is associated with Chrysocolla.

This mine and lapidary is a family-run business in Peru that specializes in hand-polished stones. One brother is in charge of the mining, exporting and sales. The other brother manages the lapidary in Lima, Peru. The business sells exclusively at gem shows in France, Germany and the United States.

I first met the owner of the mine and lapidary at the 2014 Tucson Gem Show. At that time, he was set up with a single table and the only major Gem Show he attended was in Tucson. While most lapidaries sell their polished stones in pre-packaged bags by the pound or kilo, this seller allowed me to cherry pick through his stock and buy only the best. Since then, his spot in Tucson has expanded to four tables under a tent and he now sells at two of the major European shows. It has been fun to watch our businesses grow. Every Tucson Show, we go out to dinner and eat Peruvian food together.

Chrysoprase Healing, Mineralogy, and History

Published March 2017  •  Updated August 2024  •  Read Time: 6 minutes
Chrysoprase is an apple-green variety of Chalcedony.  It has been found in locations as varied as Poland to Kazakhstan, but much of what is available in the market today is from Australia.  It is often exported to Hong Kong where it is polished into trinkets and then sold as cheap green “Jade.”  Chrysoprase’s powers have been celebrated for thousands of years.  According to legend, Alexander the Great wore a belt decorated with Chrysoprase that turned him invisible and made him practically invincible in battle.  Today, Chrysoprase is recommended by crystal healers as a sweet heart healer that reminds us that we are beautiful and loved.
