Item Description

Striking, broad, V-twinned cerussite crystals are densely intergrown on all sides of this dramatic and sculptural 3-dimensional small cabinet from the famous Broken Hill deposit. The translucent, frosted twins are gray with a hint of pink. Several pristine twins reach 1.6 cm. The noted bit of bruising has minimal impact to this very rich and attractive older specimen, that has multiple display possibilities. Classic older material, valued by the former dealer at $750.
