4.0 x 4.0 x 2.2 cm. Turquoise from this uncommon Mexican locale - the La Mariquita Mine in Sonora is seldom available. This sculptural, slightly flattened nugget is solid, classic, pretty turquoise-blue turquoise. One edge has been partially polished to reveal the gorgeous color. Complete-all-around. Older material. Ex. Consie Prince Collection. Weighs 33 grams.
