Item Description

A beautiful, sculptural small cabinet plate covered with gorgeous, bubbly, vivid, "electric-blue" hemimorphite botryoids. This color varietal has been the most popular (though hard to get) of them. It is very lustrous - a smithsonite-like waxy luster - and actually slightly translucent. The color in person is even more intense than the pics show. The piece displays well without aid.
