Item Description
A showy, old-time Bisbee azurite and malachite specimen. Sparkly, pretty, bladed, azurite balls with malachite pseudomorphs after azurite balls, banded botryoidal malachite AND scintillating tiny primary malachite needles cover the vuggy, undulating gossan matrix on this classic combo piece. Certainly around 100 years old, as it comes with an old paper label glued to the back. Ex Robert Whitmore Collection
