Item Description
Pretty light powder-blue plumbogummite has preferentially pseudomorphed only part of this dramatically sculptural 360-degree diverging cluster of pyromophite prisms. The impressive, translucent, yellow-green, terminated, tapered pyros reach about 2.8 cm on this very exotic and colorful combination from recent finds at this well-known mine, connected to and on the other side of the mountain from the famous Daoping Mine. Complete all-around and nearly pristine, with only a minimal bit of acceptable periphery wear. These have become Chinese classics.
