Item Description

Gorgeous, sparkly powder-blue, aragonite botryoids line vugs on both sides of this very colorful and sculptural specimen. The starkly contrasting snow-white matrix is an earlier generation of massive grading to acicular aragonite. Trace amounts of copper cause the blue color. A showy and excellent two-sided specimen, that would brighten up a display case.
