Item Description

A good quality and now very hard to find Bulgarian Pyromorphite specimen featuring a pair of sharp, very well-formed, attractive, doubly-terminated, hexagonal prisms of a lovely golden-brown color which are aesthetically sitting on a highly desirable Quartz matrix. The largest Pyromorphite crystal measures 1.4 cm long. Typically, the Pyromorphites from this locality are not this size, and the crystals on this piece are in very good shape for the material to boot. A worthwhile display specimen of this classic material.
