Item Description

A most unusual example of this material because usually you get just stalactites loose and broken off, whereas this is basically a whole pocket cavity of small stalactites, spilling out of the protected pocket to drape the outside areas with a thin coating of chrysocolla. There is some minimal damage, but most of the core stalactites are intact and this is a showy piece, of unusual aspect
