A particularly elegant and showy large thumbnail specimen from this amazing pocket of highly colorful adamites from Greece. Intense green color is due to copper content. This sculptural specimen is one of our favorites in the lot for the nice shape and the tentacle of pristine, complete-all-around adamite "balls" atop.
