Item Description

A beautiful pocket of drusy, sparkling, sugary quartz coating rolling hills of chrysocolla, inside a massive piece of electric blue chrysocolla matrix. This is carving quality material, and much is cabbed or crushed for lapidary use. As a specimen, this material is really just unique, and the combination from other localities seldom produces anything comparable in impact. From the well known Tucson collection of 40-year collector, Harold Urish.
