Item Description

Adamantine luster, very glassy, cyclically-twinned cerussite crystals are aesthetically clustered atop the dufite-covered, massive anglesite matrix on this showy and excellent specimen from this famed mine. The cerussite cluster is complete all-around and has only very trivial edgewear. The base has been sawed to enhance the display. Classic and aesthetic combination material.
