Item Description
Stunning form and beautiful rich blue color on this dramatic large two-generation cave aragonite specimen from the well-known Wenshan Mine. The fantastic diverging spray of elongated aragonite cave helictites on the rolling 3-dimensional, translucent aragonite matrix makes for a dramatically surreal and colorful large specimen. Trace amounts of copper cause the blue color. The piece shows well from several angles and truly stands out as some of the most attractive and colorful aragonite in the world. Valued at $1200-1500
