Plumbogummite (superb color)

Item Description

The top Plumbogummites from the Yangshuo Mine are arguably the finest examples of the species extant. The combination of their lovely form and intense color is truly impressive. Here we have a wonderful cabinet sized specimen features a full covers of translucent, rich blue colored "balls"- which glow when backlit - sitting on matrix. I have to say that the color is about as rich as I've seen for the material. There is a slightly velvety luster on the surface of each sphere, creating a very pleasing appearance. You really can't ask for better quality for the species. VERY little damage, only a few small nicks on the display side and a couple contacts on the back, but it's virtually impossible to find one of these pieces that are absolutely pristine. Priced at $1,400 in the inventory.
