This beauty, out of the Hauck collection, is for the cabinet collector - and boy, is it showy and magnificent! The bright robins-egg blue chrysocolla is covered by a druse of sparkly quartz, filling a shallow recess that curves 3-dimensionally around the top of the specimen. This pocket measures 8 cm in length! Even small specimens of this classic Arizona combo are prized, and big ones such as this are just so hard to get.
