Item Description
A super sharp, 4.1 cm, doubly terminated, tabular anglesite crystal is dramatically perched on rotten galena matrix with supremely complimentary smaller crystals on this most impressive old-time specimen from this classic locale. The bit of scuffing to the large crystal reveals the very glassy colorless interior to the coated crystals. This is a very large crystal for the locale and is seldom available. Ex Giancarlo Fioravanti Collection and obtained in a trade with the Muzzoni Collection in 1977.
