Description

Outstanding azurite thumbnail featuring a spray of well-developed, fully terminated crystals, with quasi-mirror lustre. 
The specimen is complete all around, provided the base matrix the specimen grew from. 

Among the best Tsumeb azurite thumbnails I have ever acquired. In my collection since a few years, now releasing it due to shift in focus.

Former collection Rui (I). It comes with a reasonable reserve price!
