Item Description

Glassy, translucent/gemmy, interestingly rounded smithsonite rhombs with very fine smoky color cover the very sculptural knobby sulfide matrix on this excellent example of the species and renowned locale. Bruising is noted on one side and there's a bit on the top, but can be strongly minimized in the display view. Rich and showy material of this smithsonite varietal from the Art Soregaroli Collection.
