About Blue Horizon Azurite

Blue Horizon Azurite is a trade name for a naturally occurring mixture of copper-bearing minerals found in Peru. This material often contains azurite, shattuckite, chrysocolla, malachite, tenorite, and other secondary copper species, all intergrown within a barite matrix. The result is a dramatic, painterly pattern that ranges from deep midnight blues to bright turquoise and rich green tones.

Each cabochon is hand-cut to highlight the natural color transitions and mineral textures, making it ideal for statement jewelry, wire-wrapped designs, or collectors who appreciate complex copper mineral assemblages.
