Item Description

Highly lustrous, midnight-blue, parallel-growth azurite blades, nicely accented and balanced with botryoidal malachite on one side, form an aesthetic two-sided specimen from the famous older finds at Touissit. Portions of the azurites glow with "electric-blue" color under bright light. The many terminations are contacted, not broken. Classic and excellent combination material.
