Item Description
Beautiful, gemmy and lustrous, apple-green cuprian smithsonite rhombs richly and aesthetically cover the sculptural matrix of sulfides on this most excellent specimen from Tsumeb. The large, free-standing rhomb is 9 mm. Apple-green smithsonites of this color and quality are among the most desirable Tsumeb smithsonite varietals. This is a very good specimen. Ex Zukowski Collection. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!! this style is always pricey, and should be valued $500-750
