Chrysocolla Gemstones

Chrysocolla Cabochons
from £2.30
Discover chrysocolla with its unique colour and patterns to create something completely unique.
Chrysocolla has stunning colouring, ranging from bright blue to green which is caused by its copper content. It shares many visual similarities with turquoise and is a great affordable alternative. The rarest and best quality comes from several copper mines in Arizona, Mexico, Taiwan and Peru.
Measuring at 2.5 on the Moh's hardness scale, pure chrysocolla is very fragile. Most chrysocolla is mixed with other minerals such as quartz to make the gemstone stronger and easier to turn into jewellery.
