Item Description
An incredibly glassy, bright transparent to translucent white Cerussite showing textbook cyclical twinning from Tsumeb. This is an absolutely beautiful twin with robust, gemmy, spearpoint-shaped individual twin components from 1.5 to 3.5 cm in length and 2 to 3 cm in width. This is not your typical, run-of-the-mill "gray" Cerussite that dominates available specimens on the market as it is distinctly translucent white with an outward adamantine luster and an almost pearly internal luster, and the crystals are mostly gem! A few of the crystals are highlighted by patches of rich sky-blue microcrystals of Shattuckite. Great presentation and well-balanced with dramatic display qualities! It is also remarkably pristine and complete all around.
