Item Description

A shapely and showy cyclically-twinned cerussite sixling from Tsumeb. The glassy, transparent to translucent, adamantine luster arms are strongly tapered from the center. Bruised and broken arms are noted, but this remains a showy, highly representative example of this classic cerussite form.
