Description

Originally from the Joachim Hennrich collection, this old-timer is one of the best Azurite specimens I have seen from St. Gertraudi, Brixlegg. The 5 mm Azurite spheres have perfect deep colour and a superb luster that causes the clusters to scintillate. This is a super miniature specimen in excellent shape and so far I can see, the Azurite-balls are pristine.
