Item Description

A very attractive specimen of Azurite with Malachite from the very well-known Liufengshan Mine. This small cabinet features alternating layers of rich blue sparkling Azurite sandwiched between mint green velvety Malachite. The layers are certainly uncommon for the locality in my experience, especially when there are so many of them present like on this specimen. The color combination is really eye-catching and a piece like this reminds one of classic material from Bisbee, Arizona. It's safe to say that these specimens are quite possibly the most celebrated contemporary Azurite specimens on the market.
