Naming & History

The chrysocolla is not only used in the jewelry industry but also as an ore as it is a copper mineral. Chrysocolla bears its name because it was used as a binding agent in the ancient art of goldsmithing. His name is derived from the two Greek words "chrysos" in German "gold" and "kolla" in German "to stick". Even the ancient Egyptians said that chrysocolla calmed the mind and made it more tolerant and sensitive. For this reason, even Cleopatra always carried a chrysocolla with her.
