Item Description

Azurite from Tsumeb is one of the most classic, and highly sought after species of the hundreds found at this famous locality. This piece features good sharp and rather lustrous, deep midnight blue "blades" of Azurite measuring up to 1.0 cm forming a nice large miniature / small cabinet sized specimen. A very attractive specimen, and good quality for the material, despite a bit of roughness on the side and back. I don't have to tell you that the value of Tsumeb specimens seems to rise daily, and fine quality specimens are now highly sought after, and prized more than ever by dealers and collectors alike. Priced at $500.
