Cerussite (circa late 1970s)

Item Description

Two clusters of lustrous and translucent, slightly smoky cerussite have coalesced into one specimen as they twist and intergrow into one another. The reticulated twinned cerussite clusters were in two disparate planes when they formed, and they are still that way, making for a most unusual yet lovely specimen that is very 3-dimensional. Unusually so, in fact. This is, by its style, mostly like from pockets in the late 1970s that tend to have a fairly high premium upon them due to the pleasing colr, the sharp reticulation, and the amazing symmetries. The display faces exhibit a pristine environment. Ex. Mattioli collection. valued $5000
