Item Description

Striking variable green nubby chrysocolla botryoids are festooned on the large sculptural gossan matrix plate and are dramatically accented by a few contrasting teal-blue chrysocolla botryoids and a secondary overgrowth of intergrown worm-like chrysocolla botryoids cascading down the front. A fine BONUS on the back are gorgeous rosettes of "electric-blue" azurite blades and fields of malachite botryoids. Showy, excellent and classic large two-sided combination material from Morenci and the Joe Lobell Collection. The piece has several fine display views.
