description: Beautiful deep blue extremely glassy tabular crystals of azurite measuring to 1.5 cm in size attractive over the top of a 7.5 x 6.5 x 5.5 cm matrix with colorless to graze twinned glassy crystals of cerussite to 1.0 cm. This sits up perfectly by itself for display and is very three-dimensional showing on three sides very well. Micro-chipping is present, to be expected on something like this. I think the piece in excellent condition. Shipping weight: 0.44 pounds. Ex Renaud Vochten collection.
