Azurite

Unknown Owner
The two sides of this specimen both display quite well. One side exhibits almost exclusively sharp lustrous azurite crystals. The opposite side shows a combination of chatoyant malachite crystals with sparkling azurite blades up to 0.6cm. There are minor rubs on the malachite but I would say overall it is in good condition.
