Item Description
The unique shape and style of a truly fine, delicate and lustrous Tsumeb Cerussite like this, really stands out in the mineral world from all other specimens. It might even be considered THE Tsumeb classic for iconic style and shape, even above azurite. Here is a perfect large miniature of this classic and even iconic style of mineral specimen: The overall shape gives them a beauty and symmetry that most Cerussites from other localities never obtain. This piece is a gorgeous and classic reticulated, snowflake-like Cerussite attached to a small piece of matrix for perfect balance and composition. The smaller crystals are growing, twinning, off the large central V twin. The two larger twin components measure 3.5 cm each and all of the larger and smaller twin components exhibit the best adamantine luster with textbook twin patterns. The crystals are super sharp, perfectly formed and undamaged. An exceptional small cabinet reticulate twin of Cerussite from Tsumeb! Valued $4500-plus.
