Item Description
Supremely iridescent, partially gemmy, magenta erythrite blades to 1.2 cm fully line a sculptural vug in jackstraw fashion on this showy and excellent small cabinet from from the famous Bou Azzer District of Morocco. Pristine, except for the very modest periphery wear. This is a fine and rich example from the well-known 1960s finds at this famous cobalt mining district. Ex Jaime Bird Collection.
