We have a collection of rare Chrome Diopside specimens gathered from the Gusdal Olivine Pit in Åheim, Norway. Chrome Diopside is an uncommon mineral, particularly from this specific location. They feature streaks of grey chromite surrounded by the vivid green that create stunning mineral samples, perfect for any collector.
What sets our samples apart is their unique grainier, more crumbly texture, similar to our dunite peridotite samples. While many chrome diopside specimens tend to be crystalline, these specimens offer a distinct and captivating appearance.
Diopside has a range of potential applications in ceramics, glass-making, bio materials, nuclear waste immobilisation, fuel cell technology, and more. However, finding natural diopside deposits that meet the criteria in size and purity for economic mining is exceptionally rare.
Given the limited availability of these specimens, we recommend acting swiftly if you wish to add these captivating pieces to your collection. They come are available in various sizes and supplied in a white card tray with information label.

elenite pencils are exquisite and captivating mineral formations that showcase the natural beauty of selenite, a form of gypsum. They exhibit a pristine translucence that allows light to pass through, creating a mesmerising glow when held to the light. Each selenite pencil measures approximately 14cm in height and 4cm in width whilst being smooth and well weighted. This makes them easy to hold whilst remaining promenant enough to stand out as a decorative piece. They all feature a flat, hexagonal base, making them easy to stand on a range of surfaces. Since these items are made from 100% natural selenite, it is common to expect some slight variance between each specimen, whether that be in shape, size or the occasional scratch. Despite this, these selenite pencils would make a great addition to any room, adding some flair and elegance.
