Item Description

An amazingly sculptural and excellent large combination from the famous Sweetwater Mine. Both pieces of the separate matrix are attached to the dramatically placed galena cube. The splendent, elongated, metallic cube is 5.4 x 3.0 x 2.9 cm. Classic straw-yellow calcite crystals are aesthetically set on the upper matrix, with the striking cluster at the top dominated by the gemmy, 2.9 cm, doubly terminated crystal. Both pieces of matrix are covered with dolomite rhombs. This exceptional and artisitic combination is pristine in the diplay view.
