Item Description
A sharp, beautiful, complete all-around rosette of this classic azurite from the large finds of the late 1980s. This is a fine two sided example with superior luster, rich color and sharpness to the crystals, compared to many. Many crystals have highly desirable "electric-blue" gemminess under bright. light. This is a two-toned blue piece, as this one has an overgrowth of lighter azurite. Valued $150-200. From the well known Tucson collection of 40-year collector, Harold Urish. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON.
