Item Description

An adorable "horn of plenty" miniature vug from recent finds in the Kaokoveld. The mouth of the sculptural vug shows the acicular banded shattuckite that forms the botryoids in the interior. One side of the powder-blue outer crust is beautifully accented with bright green primary malachite crystals. A classic and very cute shattuckite with malachite.
