Wonderful specimen of super Plancheite decorated aesthetically by Dioptase. The rare secondary Copper silicate Plancheite forms splendid hairy crystals of sky blue to dark blue color. Around are seen lustrous Dioptases with dark emerald-green color. The crystals are gemmy. In very good condition – some outside edges contacts (seen on the photos).

Overwhelming Plancheite-Dioptase specimen!
