Item Description

A very aesthetic, crossed cluster of elongated malachite pseudomorphs after sharp azurite crystals from the famous and now-closed Tsumeb Mine. The malachite has a nice chatoyant shimmer to it. The terminations of the large crystal and the extended, angled crystal are pristine. This excellent piece displays super-well from several angles, as you can see. Classic material. Valued at $600
