A beautiful specimen with shimmering, sugary, sparkling malachite on the front showing chatoyant, almost electric malachite on the contacted sides, looking into the crystals. The major crystal is a pristine 3-cm crystal with a slight curve, right in the middle. Slight bits of azurite, in person and up close, can be seen.
