Item Description

Sparkly, glassy, dolomite rhombs nearly cover the sculptural, 3-dimensional cluster of glassy, smoky, prismatic cerussite crystals on this showy and very fine combination from the famous Tsumeb Mine. The stout prismatic crystals reach 3.3 cm tall. There is even a dolomite cast of a dissolved away cerussite crystal on the back! The 1970s-80s Al McGuiness label and Art Soregaroli Collection labels say Berg Aukas, but this fine, uncommon 360-degree combination piece is undoubtably from Tsumeb. Valued at $500-750.
