Item Description
A very sculptural and aesthetic specimen from the famous mines at Bisbee. The vuggy gossan matrix is beautifully lined and peppered with bladed, radial aggregates of sparkly azurite. The composition of this old-timer is outstanding, with the closed-off, totally lined vug and the "porch" on the bottom covered with scintillating azurite. A bit of malachite is a nice accent. Classic material from this historic locale from the Dennis Mullane Bisbee Collection. Valued at $750-900.
