Item Description

This is a classic example of this beautiful material from Ajo featuring velvety, green Malachite which has pseudomorphed after blocky crystals of Azurite, sitting atop a chatoyant semi-spherical group of Malachite matrix. Very good condition overall with only a bit of bruising, but really eye-catching. The largest pseudomorph measures 1.8 cm. Classic material, not easily found on the market these days, especially in a showy display speicmen like this.
