Item Description

Gemmy, cyclically-twinned, smoky, cerussite crystals form a showy and excellent, two-sided, stellate specimen from the famous and now-closed Tsumeb Mine. Some of these glassy crystals have striking rainbow effects. The attached sufides add character. A bit of periphery wear is noted, but this fine piece is actually in very good condition. Ex Larry Krause Collection.
