Item Description
A very sculptural and excellent combination from famed Tsumeb. Striking, opposing midnight-blue azurite crystals have striated faces, very high luster and gorgeous "electric-blue" highlights. The fabulous terminated azurite is 3.0 cm and is essentially pristine. The brecciated matrix fragments attached to the azurites, rich dusting of tiny, gemmy, emerald-green arsentsumebite crystals (Type Locality) and what looks to be a subhedral anglesite crystal in front of the upright azurite are super compliments to this very fine two-sided old-timer.
