Item Description
Striking sprays of lustrous, army-green, pyromorphite barrels are festooned on the undulating, sturdy gossan matrix on this showy and excellent piece from the well-known early 2000s finds at this now famous Chinese locale. The lustrous and translucent prisms are hoppered and are up to 7 mm long. Very, very few broken crystals for such rich coverage. Highly representative material.
