Dioptase from Gautala. Dioptase is notoriously difficult to photograph and achieve true color rendition due to inherent sensitivity of the camera sensor. Both of these pieces were photographed under identical illumination with minimal post capture editing. The natural color of the two specimens is actually quite different.
