Item Description

GEMMY, intensely lustrous, "wet-look", apple-green pyromorphite prisms to 1.0 cm COVER the curving matrix of bladed barite on this EXCELLENT specimen from recent finds at the famous Daoping Mine of China. These are about as gemmy of Daoping pyromorphite crystals, that I have seen and the piece is pristine. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON.
