Item Description
A 2.1 cm, doubly terminated, bullet-shaped, azurite crystal is very aesthetically set on bubbly velvet malachite and is nicely accompanied by smaller azurites on this showy and excellent thumbnail from Milpillas. The highly lustrous azurites, especially the large crystal, definitely have lots of beautiful "electric-blue" gemminess under stronger light! The azurites and malachite do have a bit of bruising, but nothing to excess. Eminently displayable from either side. A very showy, highly representative combo thumbnail.
