Item Description
A classic and most excellent Tsumeb specimen of malachite pseudomorphs after sharp blocky azurite crystals to 1.7 cm, EXCEPT for the single, partially altered azurite crystal on one end. Very nifty. A bit of bruising and periphery wear is noted, but this remains a very highly representative and showy example of the species and renowned locale. It displays very well from either side. Ex Howard Belsky Collection. Valued at $750.
