This fine miniature Azurite from Tsumeb features what, by any locations standards, are very glossy and bright Azurite crystals. The sharp, bladed, upright crystals interlock to form a nicely balanced, somewhat rosette-like cluster. Individually these crystals reach 1.9 cm in length and are extremely well-formed with very clear smooth surfaces and well-defined bladed edges and terminations. Overall there is very little damage to the main crystals making for a very fine smaller display piece from one of the all-time classic Azurite world occurrences.
