Item Description
Galena and quartz combination specimens are RARE from this old extinct lead-zinc Wales mine. This outstanding and aesthetic specimen is dominated by the large compound matte-finish modified cube. The sparkly drusy quartz matrix and smaller galenas are super accents to this exceptional and rare old-timer. The bit of scuffing to the galena reveals the underlying brilliant luster of the crystal, adding pizzazz. A very showy and rare 360-degree combination from this locale and the D. Lloyd Collection.
