Item Description

Here we have a beautiful and certainly uncommon vibrant blue Smithsonite from the renowned copper deposits Congo (Brazzaville). I can't say that we've ever had one of these to offer in the auctions before. There are lots of colors for Smithsonite around the world, but the top blue is always in high demand for collectors. This piece has a gorgeous color radiating through the botryoidal aggreates. The piece comes with a label from the Gobin brothers, so you know it's legit, as they acquired it directly from the source. Don't miss out on this rare and beautiful display specimen.
