Item Description

Lustrous, tan, tightly intergrown spherical clusters of curved pyromorphite prisms form a very sculptural, tabular, solid, two-sided small cabinet crust from famed the Les Farges Mine. Nearly pristine, with only trivial periphery wear. One of the world's great pyromorphite localities, Les Farges is famed for crystal diversity, color and quality and this is an unusually fine example of this uncommon varietal. Self-collected by Paul Zerfass # 1503.
