Item Description

Scintillating spherical aggregates of bladed azurite with juicy and desirable, "electric-blue" color richly cover the large, sturdy, sculptural, malachite and gossan matrix on this showy and excellent old-timer from Bisbee. Then gossan crust overhang partially hides two clefts filled with more azurite. A fine large and classic piece with multiple dispaly views. It is probably from the famous Czar Shaft. Ex Dartmouth College Collection.
