Item Description

Beautiful apple-green sprays of hexagonal pyromorphite crystals and tapered pyromorphite spindles densely cover this aesthetic and striking, triangular miniature from early 2000s finds at the famous Daoping Mine. The crystal reach about 1.1 cm long and a few are slightly curved, adding much character. There are a few broken crystals in the interior and along the periphery, but have very minimal impact to the preferred display views. Daoping is one of the world's great pyromorphite localities and this is an excellent example of this sought-after varietal. This is a fine miniature for the style, with consistent, very pretty and lustrous apple-green color.
