Item Description

The value of specimens from Tsumeb increases daily it seems and good specimens from this mine are ALL highly sought after classics. Here we have a great thumbnail specimen from the collection of Tresa Kosnar (now Tresa Foster) featuring a few sharp, lustrous, disc-shaped, electric blue Azurite crystals on matrix. Great aesthetics, quality and even GEMMINESS, which is only seen in Azurite from a few world localities. A cool little piece with a rare history, as there are not many Tresa Kosnar specimens out there.
