Item Description

A very attractive small cabinet display specimen of Azurite on Malachite from the prolific Liufengshan mine. It features hundreds of sharp deep blue Azurite blades which are sitting atop forest green color Malachite on matrix. The color contrast is just beautiful and truly resembles classic material from Arizona. I really like the fact that exposed / broken Azurite areas on the specimen reveal the bright Malachite underneath. These specimens are certainly among the most celebrated contemporary Azurite specimens out there.
