Beautifully chatoyant, intergrown sprays of acicular primary malachite totally cover this showy and excellent CABINET specimen from the famous mines at Bisbee. Much of the back of this thin crust is also covered with malachite. Classic, old-time and desirable Bisbee malachite. Damage free. Ex Schlichter Collection. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!! The photos did not capture the fine chatoyancy of this piece.
