Item Description

A classic, slightly smoky colored "snowflake"-twinned / reticulated Cerussite on minor matrix from the famous locality at Tsumeb. The twin has superb form with incredibly well-defined, bright, shiny lustrous, faces and excellent internal gemminess! It's in fine condition, with only a small contact on the lower corner. The crystal is actually doubly-terminated as well, as you can see small basal faces on the reverse side of the piece. It's displays beautifully as you can see from the photos, and it a fantastic piece that would make a superb addition to any collection. With the price of Tsumeb specimens rising daily, this is a great opportunity to snag a classic specimen from what is considered by most people to be the most prolific mineral locality in the world. We had this piece priced in the inventory at $3,000.
