Item Description
This aesthetic and sculptural spray of yellow-green pyromorphite prisms is dominated by the striking 3.5 cm crystal at the crest. The large crystals have the desirable hoppered terminations. The scattered patches of sky-blue plumbogummite on the mostly matte-finish pyromorphite are classic and colorful accessory to this showy 360-degree piece from the remarkable 2014 find at this mine. The prisms light up when backlit! The large crystals are essentially pristine and the noted bruising and contacting at the base have minimal impact to this excellent, highly representative example with large crystals.
