Item Description

An impressive large cuprian aragonite plate from this historic locale. The sculptural arborescent forms of the glassy, translucent crystals are a pretty sky-blue grading to colorless. In great shape, overall, with just a few bruised crystals and a trivial bit of periphery wear. Specimens of the size and quality are rare from Lavrion. A must for the locality or species collector.
