2.9 x 2.6 x 1.7 cm

Lustrous royal blue Azurite crystal with a contrasting white matrix on the top and bottom. Nice complex form on this one too. There is damage to the reverse, and contact with matrix on the top and bottom, but apart of that, the crystal is intact and complete. The Milpillas mine will go down in history as one of the best Azurite localities in the world, if not THE best. There are many who say Tsumeb will always reign supreme, but that’s not without bias on my part. This is an exciting colorful piece for anyone!
