Item Description
Lustrous, glassy, mostly gray, complex smithsonite rhombs have subtle hints of very light pink cobaltoan smithsonite. The crystals are festooned on the sculptural undulating hefty matrix of scintillating sulfide microcrystals, that include much iridescent blue bornite. Showy, rich and highly representative of the species and famous locale from the West Parker Collection.
