Item Description

A very attractive big hefty cabinet display specimen of Azurite from the famous contemporary locality at the Milpillas Mine. This piece features very good quality, sharp, rather lustrous, deep blue, bladed crystals measuring up to a 2.2 cm sitting on host rock matrix. There are several bruises on the piece, hence the auction listing, but how often does one have the chance to pick up a big showy nearly LARGE CABINET sized display specimen of this famous material for such a rock bottom price? Originally value in the inventory at $2,000. This material will only increase in value as the years go by, especially now that we're told the locality is done for all intents and purposes.
