Item Description

Yellow-green, gemmy to translucent, textbook hexagonal pyromorphite prisms, to 8 mm, are scattered in clusters or as isolated crystals on both sides of the sculptural, vuggy massive quartz matrix. The two sides are distinctively different, hummocky versus flat, adding much pizzazz. Classic and choice pyromorphite of this style on quartz, self-collected by Paul Zerfass # 898.
