Item Description

A sculptural mounded miniature of rich yellow, translucent, cauliflower head-shaped botryoids with waxy luster from the famous 1968 find at San Pedro Correlitos. This is a fine, noteworthy piece, as the botyroids have uniform size, which is uncommon for the find. Pristine. Choice material from the Mervyn Ford Collection. The price of these have skyrocketed in recent years!
