Item Description
Top color, kelly-blue, smithsonite botryoids with excellent translucence and "wet-look" luster form a sculptural and showy specimen from the famous Kelly Mine of New Mexico. The smaller botryoids are the "rice-grain" varietal. The base has been sawed to enhance the display quality. Very highly representative of the species and famed locale.
