Cerussite (gem quality)

Item Description

Cerussite from Tsumeb is one of the most classic, and more difficult to obtain in fine specimen. This piece features GEM quality, HIGHLY lustrous, very sharp, crystals of sherry/golden colored Cerussite on matrix. The largest crystal measures 1.5 cm long. A very attractive miniature specimen, and good quality for the material. The main crystal is essentially damage free, but there is a bit of roughness here and there near the base of the specimen. Tsumeb specimens are rising in value by the minute it seems, and attractive miniatures like this are in demand.
