Item Description
An excellent, aesthetic, thumbnail of a now very hard to find Bulgarian pyromorphite specimen featuring intergrown, sharp, very well-formed, highly lustrous, translucent, hexagonal prisms of a lovely two-toned root beer-brown color. The largest crystal has a slightly hoppered termination. The piece is in outstanding shape and looks great from either direction! Valued by the former dealer at $395. This fine thumb reminds me of quality Bad Ems brown pyromorphite.
