Description: This lot features high quality, well crystallized azurite specimens. They take the form of clustered aggregates of bladed crystals, with striking deep blue color and textbook structure. Many specimens have elongated, sharp crystals with well defined edges and faces.
Azurite is a copper-based mineral known for its striking, deep blue color, which ranges from bright azure to almost indigo. It forms through the oxidation of copper ore deposits, often in association with malachite (a green copper carbonate mineral). This unique mineral is valued for both its beauty and its historical use as a blue pigment in art, especially during the Middle Ages and Renaissance, before the creation of synthetic pigments.
In metaphysical practices, azurite is associated with the third eye chakra (located between the eyebrows), which is linked to intuition, insight, and mental clarity. This mineral is believed to enhance psychic abilities, deepen spiritual awareness, and improve focus. People often use azurite for meditation, as its deep blue color is thought to help in opening the mind and gaining insight, as well as promoting a clearer connection to one's inner guidance.
