Item Description

Typically the Azurites from Morcenci can have a softer/lighter blue color and are often found in spherical aggregates comprised of thin bladed crystals. This one has a good dark royal blue color with a lovely classic form of a "rosette". The luster is certaily above average and really eye-catching. Minor associated green Malachite makes for a nice touch. Great condition all the way around, with good quality crystals and very little damage. From the collection of Richard Kosnar, the namesake for Kosnarite.
