Item Description
Dazzling, and very large, specimen of gorgeous blue-violet Azurites from the wave of excellent Chinese Azurites that came out in the early 2000s. This piece is virtually all crystals - front, back, and most of the bottom. The splendent Azurites crystals are tabular, with many showing very distinctly in all the little 'pockets' on the specimen. The average range for many of these crystals is .7 cm on edge. In person, it sparkles and has intense color that is just exceptional, more than you expect from the photos
