Item Description

Two intergrown lustrous, lead-gray, melted-look, pseudo-octahedral acanthite crystals form a showy and aesthetic specimen from recent finds at famed Fresnillo. One crystal is very sharp, compared to the other, adding interest and character. The piece has two fine display views. Such highly deformed crystals are uncommon from Fresnillo.
