Item Description

The allure of beautiful Kelly smithsonite is universally admired. Alternating bands of translucent, classic Kelly blue and sea-green botryoidal smithsonite cap the striking, brecciated, silicified limestone on this dramatic, slabbed, CABINET wedge, that looks like a slice of pie. This is cutter-grade smithsonite from this famous locale. The colorful banding and the striking, fault block-like brecciation really make this a showy and excellent piece. Ex Larry Krause dealer stock.
