Item Description

Interconnected nodules of Azurite crystal aggregates up to 2.2 cm diameter. Save for the one contact point, all the surfaces are crystallized. The drusy surfaces have a fine, silky sparkle to them, while the surfaces with larger crystals (up to .2 cm) practically glow with a deep dark-blue sparkle that is just dazzling. Superb luster and deep blue color. No damage. Great aesthetics and a MORE INTENSE blue in person!
