Item Description

From finds of the early 2000's, this is a now-classic style from Shangbao that was never repeated: It features a gorgeous 2 x 1 x 1 inch elongated crystal perched up on dolomite matrix. The crystal is pristine, and complete. Seldom available on the market today., in this style! Certainly, I never see them for sale in China.
