About Chrome diopside
Chrome diopside is a bright green, usually transparent variety of the mineral diopside, coloured by chromium. Stones over 3–4 carats are quite rare.
Hardness
5.5–6.5 (Mohs)
Everyday wear
Chrome diopside is relatively soft with perfect cleavage, so it is best in earrings and pendants or in protective settings, and should be taken off for sport or hard work.
Care
Clean with mild soap, lukewarm water and a soft cloth; avoid ultrasonic and steam cleaners and household chemicals such as bleach, and store it apart from harder gems.
Meaning and tradition
In crystal lore, chrome diopside is associated with creativity, a love of learning, and love and commitment, and many people connect it with the heart and with compassion.
Meanings and traditions are beliefs people have held about these stones, not proven effects, and are no substitute for medical advice.
