Item Description
First-class rosette of large (up to 1 cm) Azurite blades growing in about five thick clusters. These large blades have good luster, and the beautiful two-tone azure (both deep and the lighter drusy violet) that you often see, gives the piece a distinct and very attractive character. The Azurite crystals have a high luster and good deep color, sparkling like midnight stars. To find such a quality specimen from any type locality is a real find. A very good Azurite, and better in person.
