Item Description

A dramatic, very colorful large chrysocolla specimen from a recent find at a very obscure Peruvian locale. Gorgeous, juicy, waxy luster, multi-hued and multi-layered, bubbly chrysocolla botryoids cover the matrix on this excellent piece. The bright and rich sky-blue outer layer predominates with underlying layers of teal-green and green peering out and adding contrast. Impressive and colorful large banded and botryoidal chrysocolla from this new find! We bought all we could, down in Peru.
