Item Description
A DRAMATIC, VERY SHOWY, two-sided CABINET specimen. We have been trying to bring you a variety of the wonderful blue hemimorphites that have been coming from Wenshan over the past year. This is very close to the "electric blue" ones that have been the most popular (though hard to get) of them. It is very lustrous - a smithsonite-like luster - and actually slightly translucent. The color in person is even more intense than the pics show. I like the weird, vuggy/matrix pattern on the back.
