Azurite Malachite Clusters

This crystal is listed as Azurite Malachite Clusters (shop SKU KMAM2), and is sold at Namaste Bookshop near Union Square.

Azurite is a deep-blue copper carbonate, often found with green malachite, and the two commonly occur together in the same specimen. It is relatively soft and should be kept dry. In crystal traditions, azurite and malachite are associated with insight and with the heart. Those ideas belong to folklore and personal practice, not to any medical claim.

A cluster is a group of crystals that grew together; no two have the same arrangement of points. Natural stones vary in color, clarity, and shape, so the piece you receive will have its own character even when the weight, grade, or size is listed.
