Item Description

Here we have a beautifully contrasting specimen consisting of very attractive, lustrous, sharp, deep navy blue color crystals of Azurite associated with forest green, velvety Malachite on matrix. The color contrast is just beautiful and truly resembles classic material from Bisbee, Arizona. The specimen displays well and really draws one's attention. For a specimen of this size, it is pretty showy and is one of the better pieces in this size range that I have offered in the auctions in a while. These specimens are commanding high prices, even from the Chinese dealers.
