Item Description

Juicy, gemmy, rich yellow, pyromorphite prisms richly and attractively encrust the matrix on this showy and excellent piece from the early 1990s finds. The largest crystals at the top, to 8 mm, give this cutie fine aesthetics. The yellow color is not that common from these finds. A few broken crystals are noted, but you can hardly tell. Ex Harold Urish Collection and obtained in a trade in March, 1994. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!
