A lovely, flower like assemblage of slender, sky blue crystals of of superb Plumbogummite pseudomorphs after Pyromorphite up to 3 cm in length, that clearly exhibit hopper growths at their terminations. It is exceptional all around, and more delicate in appearance than most are, especially with the fine little crystals around the base. This is one of my favorites of the lot I carefully picked in China several years ago now (2012?) from among hundreds of pieces. I chose this particular one for its aesthetics in the size range.
