It is quite similar with the colour of chrysoprase or jade. The rough is available in chunky rock pieces so they cut and make good cabochons Production is small and not easy t o find and the colour is natural green and is good for faceting ,carving or cabochon stones Prase is generally more translucent and gemmy than chrysoprase but most cutters have never tried this unique stone. It can be discovered in the same places, but the two can be identified with their differences in terms of refractive manifestation and its specific magnitude. Prase is also referred as African Jade because of its attractive green colour,.
