Shattuckite and Malachite, with Quartz

Item Description

Classic, top-notch combination of Shattuckite. Malachite, and Quartz from famous Kaokaveld. The medium -blue Shattuckite comprises the main pocket, and as is sometimes seen, it is coated by water-clear Quartz. This Quartz coating is highly-prized for the beauty it imparts to the Shattuckite. Sitting in the pocket is an amazing 3.2 cm blocky Malachite crystal, lustrous and deep green. This is primary malachite, a rare large crystal of malachite which formed on its own, instead of as a peudomorph, or secondary, after azurite. This particular combination is highly sought after for its beauty and rarity. Acquiring a combination of this quality would be a great prize. Extremely aesthetic.
