Item Description

Sharp, metallic-gray, spinel-twinned, galena crystals to 2.0 cm with accenting quartz needles are richly and aeshetically scattered on this showy plate from the Borieva Mine at Madan. The major crystals are pristine and the modest periphery wear is noted, but does not detract. Excellent contemporary material from this locale.
