Description

This specimen is very special for several indicators. I know blue-green Aragonite from Styrian Erzberg here in Austria; the locality is famous for this material. Also I saw some fine specimen from Greece, but the saturation of this Chinese specimen is really amazing and for sure among the best I ever had. Further it is not only blue - it has this wonderful contrast to the lower part. The blue part is completely exposed and very tri-dimensional, also complete all around and looks great in really each position, even the back-side is amazing. Undamaged.
