Item Description
Very rich, classic mimetite from Tsumeb. Citron-yellow, sparkly, translucent, sugary, elongated mimetite botryoids are attractively festooned atop the sturdy sculptural gossan matrix plate. The botryoids reach about 1.3 cm on this very aesthetic 360-degree small cabinet. Complete all-around and very nearly pristine, with only one broken botryoid noted near an edge. A very fine and rich example of the species and local with multiple display views from the Shields Flynn Tsumeb Collection. Valued at $500-700.
