Item Description

Sculptural and aesthetic small cabinet combination from older early 2000s finds at the lead-zinc Lechang Mine. Aesthetically intergrown rosettes of moderately lustrous, sharply bladed, gray-brown to reddish-brown hematite "iron roses" are beautifully complemented with well-placed gemmy quartz obelisks, to 1.5 cm. The showy quartz cluster in the middle is pristine. Ex Tim Sherburn Collection. This is excellent combination material from the locale.
