Item Description

A classic and excellent specimen from this much less well-known Viburnum Trend locale. Aesthetically intergrown, splendent, blocky galena cubes are nicely accented with brassy marcasite. The striking centerpiece cube is 3.2 x 2.7 x 2.0 and is slightly distorted. Complete all-around and nearly pristine, with only trivial edge and periphery wear. Eminently viewable from either side. Ex Schlichter Collection.
