Item Description

An excellent and aesthetic, large, old-time, combination classic from the Tri-State District. A pristine, 2.6 x 2.4 x 2.4 cm, lustrous, metallic-gray, galena cube with nifty subtle fortificatioin features is very jauntily perched on sculptural chert matrix festooned with scintillating, gemmy, rubyjack sphalerite crystals. This striking piece displays well from either side. Ex Robert Whitmore Collection.
