Item Description
Scintillating nodule of Azurite crystals creating an aggregate 3.1 cm in diameter. Save for the one contact point, all the surfaces are crystallized. The drusy surfaces have a fine, silky sparkle to them, while the surfaces with larger crystals (up to .2 -.3 cm) practically glow with a deep dark-blue sparkle that is just dazzling. Superb luster and deep blue color. No damage. Great aesthetics.
