Item Description

An sculptural and aesthetic two-sided pyromorphite miniature from this famous locale. Striking, elongated, juicy, translucent pistachio-green prisms, to about 1.6 cm, dramatically rise up from the thin matrix crust. Complete all-around and very nearly pristine. All of the many large crystals in the interior are pristine. The bit of noted periphery wear is certainly only a modest detraction to this fine example of this varietal.
