Item Description

Gorgeous, powder-blue, aragonite botryoids form a beautiful and striking specimen from recent finds at the Wenshan Mine of China. Copper inclusions cause the excellent blue color, which really intensifies, when the piece is backlit! The piece has a definite biomorphic shape. It looks like a crouching or kneeling animal.
