Plumbogummite ps. After Pyromorphite on Quartz

Item Description

A sculptural, unusual looking and colorful large pseudomorph combination from recent Chinese finds. Pretty sky-blue translucent plumbogummite botryoids have pseudomorphed or coat the yellow pyromorphite prisms, giving them a very bubbly look, many with blue-green hues. The left half of the piece has striking parallel-growth boxwork septae, adding much pizzazz. The plate rests on quartz matrix. The periphery wear reveals the rich yellow color of the pyromorphite and underlying quartz, adding color and contrast. Choice and most unusual style combination material from the find.
