Item Description
Glassy, vivid-pink, cobaltoan smithsonite rhombs are aesthetically clustered on this showy and excellent miniature from Tsumeb. The large rhomb is 1.9 cm on the diagonal. All of the rhombs in the interior are pristine. A cute and classic example of this highly desirable Tsumeb varietal with fairly large crystals. The base and one lower edge have been sawed to enhance the fine display quality.
