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 year. This EXCELLENT, 2-piece deal features both of the most desirable colors and varieties. The botryoidal one is very close to the "electric blue" ones that have been the most popular (though hard to get) of them. It is very lustrous - a smithsonite-like luster - and actually slightly translucent. The color in person is even more intense than the pics show. The second piece is a beautiful, contrasting, powder-blue and is composed of sparkly, sugary, hemimorphite microcrystals. A colorful, dynamic duo.
