Item Description
A very glassy and lustrous, 3.5 cm, smoky, cyclically-twinned, cerussite crystal is aesthetically set on the edge of a plate of oxide-coated, barite blades on this showy and excellent combination piece from Mibladen. This striking crystal is complete all-around and just a bit of contacting, lower on the backside. The frontal view is striking and pristine. Older, seldom available material from the 70s and 80s. Valued a $750.
