Item Description

Well-crystallized quartz is RARE from Tsumeb and is EXTREMELY RARE in assocation with sharp azurite crystals, such as this outstanding sculptural thumbnail. A splendent, striated, 2.2 cm, doubly terminated tabular midnight-blue pristine azurite crystal is aesthetically accented with another azurite and is beautifully complimented by the contrasting field of glassy quartz points at one end. "Electric-blue" highlights to the azurites under bright light add real pizzzaz to this RARE and fine combination cutie. Valued at $1200.
