Liroconite

Unknown Owner

Classic British specimen with lustrous beautiful blue crystals of low aragonite measuring to 0.3 cm in size on matrix. Very minimal damage present, this still in good condition. The specimen comes with a previous antique label. Prior to Mr. Gruson, the specimen was part of the Hoyer collection which was sold in 1893. I would assume that this piece was collected somewhere in the very early 19 century or late 18th century.
