The ArkenstoneFeatured
Azurite crystals of bright and open Morenci blue color highlight a full pocket within a natural cavity, expertly polished and trimmed out of a larger mass of ore on this historic specimen. From the collection of Bill Larson as a special suite, including many of the Ben Williams Bisbee specimens in this update, to reside in their home. This is one of the larger flagship pieces from that display case. This material is difficult to work and care was taken to preserve the pocket in the trimming 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 Ben Williams Bisbee collection; and also for Wayne Thompson with Morenci azurite. 1196 grams.
