ABOUT CHRYSOPRASE: Chrysoprase is a gemstone that is a type of Chalcedony, a variety of quartz, and is known for its apple-green color. Chrysoprase is typically apple-green but can range from turquoise-like cyan to deep green. Darker varieties are called prase. Chrysoprase is usually translucent but can range from nearly transparent to nearly opaque. Chrysoprase contains small amounts of nickel, which gives it its color. The name chrysoprase comes from the Greek words chrusos, meaning "golden", and prason, meaning "leek". Chrysoprase has been used by the Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians to make jewelry, seals, signets, and other ornamental objects.
