What a fantastic dioptase miniature! A 18.5 x 11 mm crystal is perched on white smithsonite matrix. It is actually freestanding and very well isolated on all sides. Some malachite balls set a beautiful contrast. The specimen is in great condition, ther is just very tiny edge wear present on one edge, however, this is very trivial and also not visible from the front side. The aesthetics of this specimen is breath-taking, it is indeed one of the best dioptase miniatures i have ever seen. Definitely a killer specimen for the very advanced collector!
