Item Description
A dramatic and sculptural large pseudomorph from recent finds at Milpillas. Shimmering velvet malachite has replaced a striking dense parallel-growth cluster tabular azurite crystals. Offsetting pseudos on either side of the clusters are a nice accent and the large doubly terminated pseudo on the back side is 3.6 cm long. An architectural and unusual style of azurite pseudos from here. The piece is essentially solid malachite pseudos after azurite.
