Item Description

This stunning Daoping pyromorphite miniature has amazing architecture and crystal form to match the glorious, juicy, apple-green color. First the incredible cascading curtain cluster is dramatically set at the end of the matrix plate covering with absolutely gemmy sprays of scintillating light green prisms. The surreal, hoppered crystal cluster is dominated by the fabulous, 2.0 cm, superbly hoppered pyro. For unreal form and aesthetic quality, this is certainly one of the best miniatures we have offered at auction. Fairly valued at $850-1000.
