Description
Stunning lazurite specimen with multiple clusters of ultramarine blue lazurite on white calcite marble! The major crystal is literally 2 inches (5 cm) tip to tip, and doubly-terminated! It is perfectly exposed on matrix. The color on this is as robust and deep as I have ever seen or wished for. Two clusters of large, royal-blue lazurite crystals are dramatically accented by off-white calcite marble and flecks of brassy yellow pyrite. A very sculptural piece with distinctly angular and elongate groups of crystals. It is hard to describe this 3-dimensional and incredibly color-saturated specimen accurately with flat photos, and we believe it is much better in person. Displays well in a few orientations and sits nicely either horizontally or vertically, as you might prefer in person. The large crystal makes it important. The color and geometries make it beautiful. This is a prize piece I first owned over a decade ago and I know it dates to the early 2000's, and bought back recently.
Known provenanceKnowing where your specimen comes from and who owned it adds to its story and value. Good provenance helps prove it's authentic and preserves important details about its discovery.
