Rarity:
Average value: 9800
Location: Hinterwilds

a nival everfrost shard

Description:   The shard is pale and clear, but fingers of frost clinging to its surface suggest that it is no mere diamond, but a chunk of crystallized rhimar. The jewel radiates intense cold, causing the air around it to puff into faint wisps of mist. A blizzard of frigid blue and glacial green glints wink across its jagged facets.

a shimmertine shard

Description:   The curving shimmertine fragment is rough in most places, but iridescent hues dance along the smooth surfaces where the stone fractured along its proper cleavage. From one direction, the semi-translucent stone appears pure white, but, from another, many long, thin stripes in various rainbow hues draw a parallel course through the heart of the stone.


Rarity:
Average value: 175
Location: Hinterwilds

a virescent nephrite shard

Description:   Uneven in hue, the shard of nephrite transitions from a pallid lime to a richer forest green, with a snowstorm of white specks trapped just under the surface. The clash of hues is reminiscent of a forest lazing beneath a fall of snowflakes.
