Item Description

A sculptural, 3-dimensional cluster of bi-colored smithsonite botryoids from this renowned locale. The translucent bubbly botryoids have pretty turquoise-blue to gray color and waxy luster. The parallel-growth form of the botryoids has artistic character. A very interesting, 360-degree piece with the periphery wear being only moderately detracting. A rich, showy and colorful older smithsonite example from this classic locale.
