Item Description
Some of the most hard to find yet well known Cerussite specimens from Colorado are those from the Leadville District. This reticulated, prismatic specimen is a very good representative Cerussite with rather lustrous faces, and a soft white-yellow color. An historic specimen with a label from Carnegie. The quality, especially from the standpoint of luster and crystal size, is impressive for the locality. These pieces are rarely seen on the market, and this is a worthwhile little display specimen of this clasic material.
