Item Description
A beautiful and classic example of the old Azurites from the Ajo, which are honestly not easy to find in good quality thumbnails like this piece. Eye-catching, very lustrous, layered rhombic crystals with a rich blue color can be seen all over the front of this piece, and minor associated Malachite can be seen on the back. No real damage that I can see, and the piece is very attractive in person. If you collect Azurites, thumbnails or minerals of Arizona, this is something that you don't often see for sale from the New Cornelia Mine, and it's better in person than the video might indicate.
From the comprehensive worldwide thumbnail collection of Dr. Alex Schauss.
