Description

This was discovered in 2012, in the Christiana mine. At the time it was and still is a superb, unusually rich Greek azurite. The color is excellent and the piece hosts rounded aggregates of royal blue to azure-blue crystals of azurite. The size is very big for an azurite mass like that from Greece. A wonderful and colorful piece, the style of which we haven't seen coming out of the mine again, since this great 2012 find.
