Natural Black Star Diopside 9mm Round Cabochon Asterism

Natural Black Star Diopside 9mm Round Gemstone with Asterism

Discover the magic of one of the most fascinating and rare gemstones: Black Star Diopside. This specimen, cut as a 9mm round cabochon, is entirely natural and comes from India, the only source in the world for the finest quality of this stone.

The Asterism Phenomenon

The most extraordinary feature of this gemstone is the four-ray asterism. Unlike star sapphires which have six rays, Black Star Diopside displays a bright and well-defined cross that seems to float on its black surface like a star in a night sky. This effect is caused by microscopic needle-like inclusions within the stone, which reflect light creating the magical star pattern.
