Item Description
A 2.0 cm, sharp, splendent, deep azure-blue, azurite blade with with LOTS (nearly all of the crystal) of striking "electric-blue" gemminess is elegantly perched atop a cluster of starkly contrasting malachite pseudomorphs after azurite blades on this outstanding and very aesthetic miniature from the recent finds at the Milpillas Mine. This superb cutie is nearly pristine, with only a trivial bit of barely noticeable edgewear to the crystal. Valued at $300. For the size, this is really good, super-gemmy beauty. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
