A fine, two-sided specimen from recent Chinese finds. A beautiful growth of stalactitic aragonite, with stunning sky-blue to very light blue color from copper content. Note how the growth started out botryoidal, and then shifted to more branchlike forms as the stalactites grew. The piece has a coral-like "bloom" form.
