Item Description
Cerussite from Tsumeb is one of the most classic, and more difficult to obtain in fine specimen. This piece features GEM/GEMMY, nearly colorless, sharp, lustrous, reticulated / cyclic twinned crystals of Cerussite measuring up to 1.3 cm aesthetically set atop matrix. A very attractive miniature specimen, and good quality for the material. No damage that I can see to the main twin. Tsumeb specimens are rising in value by the minute it seems, and even attractive thumbnails like this are in demand.
