Item Description
A very showy and rare smithsonite combination from famed Touissit. The striking front is a beautiful floral-shaped crust of translucent, lustrous, pastel-green smithsonite with a light oxide tint. The hefty matrix is rare for the locale granular galena. The back holds a nice surprise, as it is covered with tiny, glassy cerussite crystals accented with tiny green malachite. Aesthetic and rare combination material from the Larry Krauss dealer stock.
