Item Description

Striking sprays of lustrous, green pyromorphite prisms with classic hoppered terminations very aesthetically and richly cover the curved gossan matrix vug on this on this very fine, rich and showy small cabinet from the early 2000s finds at the famous Daoping Mine. The crystals reach about 1.3 cm and there are very few broken crystals for such dense coverage, all are around the periphery. This is an excellent and rich example of this varietal from the Raul Orellana Collection. Valued at $1250-1500.
