This very showy plate from Wenshan, China features the most desirable color and variety. Botryoidal, very close to "electric-blue" hemimorphite covers the crust. These have been the most popular (though hard to get) of them. It is very lustrous - a smithsonite-like luster - and actually slightly translucent. The color in person is even more intense than the photo shows.
