Item Description

Sprays of lustrous, GEM azurite crystals to 1.2 cm RICHLY invest the curved vug in the boot-shaped, malachite-coated, massive sulfide matrix on this CHOICE, CABINET azurite specimen from Tsumeb and the Rob Smith Collection. The azurite crystals have incredible sparkle and gemmy flashes in person! The trivial bit of contacting at the top of specimen is certainly not a detraction. Gem azurites have always been highly desirable and are uncommon from Tsumeb. This one is super-rich. Valued at $1750-2000
