Item Description
Glassy, cyclic-twinned, cerussite crystals to 1.0 cm are festooned on the 3-dimensional matrix of octohedral galena on this outstanding old-time specimen from the famous Bleiberg District of Austria. The cerussites are very large for the area (the large crystal is doubly terminated) and the rich coverage is exceptional. Very seldom available in this quality. Ex Howard Belsky Collection.
