17.8 carat Vintage style Chrome Diopside from Eastern Siberia .925 Sterling Silver DIPPED IN RHODIUM handmade Brooch

This Chrome Diopside brooch in sterling silver showcases 17.8 carats of genuine Eastern Siberian stone in a bold vintage floral arrangement. The Pattaya Collection piece features round-cut green Chrome Diopside set in rhodium-dipped .925 silver with a high-polished white finish.

Chrome Diopside ranks 5-6 on the Mohs hardness scale and originates from the remote mines of Eastern Siberia, where harsh conditions produce some of the world's richest green gemstones. The deep forest-green color comes from chromium content within the crystal structure. This brooch measures 1.5 inches in length, 1.5 inches in width, and 3/4 inch in thickness. Total weight: 22.50 grams. The rhodium plating over sterling silver prevents tarnish and maintains that bright white metal appearance against the green stones.

Wear this substantial piece on lapels, scarves, or structured fabric for evening events and formal gatherings. The secure pin mechanism holds firm on heavier materials. SilverRush Style has specialized in natural-stone sterling silver jewelry since 2005. Free US shipping included with your order.
