Alabaster Dragon by Mody Ra

Beautiful translucent alabaster dragon carved from old stock quarried at the Valley of the Kings in Luxor.  Alabaster from this location has not been available for at least 10 years.  

Egyptian alabaster is a calcite alabaster, and is considered by many to be the finest in the world.  This piece is shown backlit as well as in natural sunlight. If you would like to learn more  about alabaster and its properties I have included extensive information  in this blog article.

Enjoy!
