Item Description
Cerussite from Morocco is not quite as famous as their Tsumeb cousins in some circles, but they are, at their best, equally noteworthy and in fact some styles are distinct from Namibian material (as this), while others strongly resemble Namibian material. Probably from 1960-70s production, this is not ONLY a classic Moroccan twinned cerussite, but a CLUSTER of two of them, intergrown like an organic alien mesh. It is so weird, so unearthly, so surreal in person...with a look that is biological more than mineral! SEE THE VIDEO! The large twinned edge is 6.5 cm long, and it all then grows into the crystals of the smaller, more complex twinned cerussite at the base as we mount it, tip up. However, this could frankly be displayed any way, up or down or on its side...good all around! A special piece, valued $5000-up.
