About the Item

Hemimorphite on Quartz, Malipo Mine, Wenshan Co., Yunnan Prov., China Measures: 12 cm tall x 10 cm wide Hemimorphite from China has taken on entirely new qualities that barely existed anywhere else on Earth. The intensity of color and the clarity of the crystals on this piece are unparalleled. The contrast from an iceberg blue to a "Tiffany" blue makes for excellent contrast looking like a cloudy sky view of the ocean below.
