Item Description

Beautiful, gemmy and lustrous, flesh-pink cobaltoan smithsonite rhombs cover the matrix plate on this showy and excellent large example of the varietal from famed Tsumeb. The sharp rhombs reach 2.5 cm on the diagonal. Choice material, with just a bit of periphery wear, which is certainly only a modest detraction. Valued at $1250-1500. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
