Item Description

Beautiful and bright, lustrous, royal-blue Azurite crystals are densely intergrown into a sculptural, flattened rosette. This very showy miniature is from the well-known 1988-1989 finds at the La Sal claim. Hints of electric-blue color tweak the allure of the Azurite, and the drops of green Malachite add to this classic piece. Quintessential and excellent for this locality, this miniature is choice material, with fine aesthetics 360 degrees around. There are numerous references to Jack and his collection in print, but perhaps a good tour of the collection and its history will help give perspective on just how good, and important, this collection is: https://www.irocks.com/the-jack-halpern-collection
