Item Description
An exotic and RARE rounded cuprian smithsonite cast from Tsumeb. Rich mint-green color highlights this most unusual translucent mounded small cabinet with matte lustre and striking very well defined banding on the edges. There is a nice green glow, when it is back lit. What was this extreme rarity casted after?? A fascinating and surreal 360-degree cuprian smithsonite cast from this famed locale. We've never seen another like it. Value - hard to say, but up to $2000 wouldn't be surprising.
