Item Description

Superb set of lustrous, deep-green Primary Malachite crystals nestled in a pocket of deep blue, velvety Shattuckite. The beautiful Shattuckite spheres range from 1.3 cm across from the underside view (lighter blue) to 1 cm across on the top, deep-blue velvety side. Both presentations of the Shattuckite are enthralling in their own right. The Malachite is exemplary with it's luster and color. The longest of the Malachites is an amazing 3 cm long, and the widest Malachite crystal is an imposing 2.3 cm across. Rarely do you find the combination this good, where both species are so colorful and complement.
