Description
What a stunning royal blue Azurite thumbnail from Bisbee! This gorgeous thumbnail actually consists of a divergent fan of thinly bladed crystals that starts out 4 mm wide at the bottom and blossoms out to nearly 2 cm at the top. Although the most vibrant blue all over, it is actually slightly translucent at the bottom and along the side edges! It's a remarkable Bisbee piece from the 1940s or early 1950s, from a single pocket with this unique style! Story has it that the whole pocket remained in a box in storage in a collection, which sold to Donald Olson (dealer) at some point years ago. Don then dispersed them in Southern California and at shows. This was said to be the best of the thumbnails, and was in the Kyle Kevorkian collection until exchanged out recently.

Azurite Sales Data
How this data is collected: Our system continuously monitors mineral listings from authorized dealer partners across the internet. We have explicit permission from all dealers whose listings we track - any dealers who have not provided specific and explicit authorization are NOT listed and NOT tracked by our system. When a previously available listing is marked as sold or removed from sale, we record this as a completed transaction. While we cannot guarantee the exact final sale price (as negotiations may occur), this data represents publicly listed prices for specimens that have transitioned from "for sale" to "sold" status. This provides valuable market insights based on observable listing behavior patterns.
