Hemimorphite

Item Description

We have been trying to bring you a variety of the wonderful blue hemimorphites that have been coming from Wenshan over the past couple of years. This striking, sculptural, specimen is covered with beautiful hemimorphite. The parallel-growth botryoidal surfaces looks like molten plastic, and are an intense, deep robins-egg blue. It is lustrous - a smithsonite-like luster - and actually slightly translucent. The color in person is even more intense than the pics show. For color and uniqueness, this represents one of the most unusual new finds of the past couple of years! Excellent and colorful material.
