Azurite

Unknown Owner
A unique specimen with translucent razor sharp azurite blades nestled in a vug of olivenite. The contrast between the earthy green and brown olivenite and the neon blue azurite is very striking. A very unique specimen from a world famous mine. Previously in the collections of Bard, Neufeld, Amo, Zindel, and Jahn.
