Item Description

Scintillating drusy quartz covers an adorable mounded ball of intense blue chrysocolla on this superb miniature from this old less well-known Au-Cu mine started in the 1600s! The bottom hosts rare malachite, as a bonus. A stellar example from the Terry Szenics Collection (self-collected).
