Item Description

An impressive, rich and hefty large combination specimen from famed Tsumeb. The striking, 6.5 cm frontal sculptural vug is filled with a dense nest of glassy, adamantine lustre cerussite crystals and highlighted by the impressive large 1.8 cm doubly terminated cyclic-twin. Azurite crystals and malachite nicely frame the vug. A highly lustrous 4.0 cm navy-blue azurite crystal dominates the imposing 5.0 cm vug on the left and is nicely accented with smaller azurites, a few cerussites and contrasting malachite. The sawed rich ore matrix is composed of cerussite and azurite. Classic, showy and rich large Tsumeb combination material form the Shields Flynn Collection.
