Item Description
A very showy and aesthetic combination specimen from this ancient locale. The segmented nature of the three species is dramatic. Splendent, jet-black, twinned sphalerite crystals to 2.0 cm occupy about one-half of the piece. The middle consists of striking, metallic-gray, highly etched, melted-look, galena octahedrons. The jackstraw spray of water-clear quartz points is a super compliment. Pristine. Classic and fine combination material from this classic locale.
