The ArkenstoneFeatured
A freeform sculpture composed of undulating azurite bands with minor malachite, from 1980s finds by Wayne Thompson under a contract with the mining company, at this old Arizona copper mine. Polished expertly by master lapidary Bud Standley, who specializes in working with copper minerals. A native of Arizona, lapidary artist Bud Standley grew up near the copper mines. He learned to carve gemstones in 1971, at age 19; and did all the work for the Larson family when they obtained the antique Ben Williams Bisbee collection; and for Wayne Thompson with Morenci azurite. Larson family personal collection. 62 grams.
