{"product_id":"azurite-1","title":"AZURITE","description":"A superb stellate burst of bladed, tabular Azurite crystals from the classic French locality at Chessy-les-Mines, the type locality of Azurite.  Copper mining at Chessy goes back to the Middle Ages where a stockwork was exploited.  The blue carbonate mineral was initially named Chessylite but was changed to Azurite, derived from the Persian name for areas of blue mineralization.  The Azurite crystals are a very deep blue, with lighter drusy zones in the central areas of the crystals.  Some of the Azurite crystals exhibit a 'saw-tooth' habit, gradually curving towards their termination.  The underside shows a typical creamy clay matrix from which the Azurite is extracted.  This is a very attractive Azurite from Chessy-les-Mines, located in the Rhône Region of lower eastern France.  This miniature is accompanied with a narrow slip of paper (a mini-label) written 'Azzurrite [sic] xx, Chessy' in a lovely elegant, flowing hand.","brand":"Crystal Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57781138030927,"sku":"CC2117","price":666.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1011\/3748\/2063\/files\/CC2117_23c60d2a-4981-4cc5-bc84-f153658e6606.jpg?v=1783978960","url":"https:\/\/crystalclassics.co.uk\/products\/azurite-1","provider":"Crystal Classics UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
