First-class and beautiful, this fantastic thumbnail (borderline miniature) has everything going for it. Great color, wonderful silky luster, and classic habit. The largest of the curved rhombs is 2.1 cm, tip to tip, and the crystals are actually quite gemmy. One of the terrific aspects of this killer is that it can be displayed in any number of orientations, depending on your taste or preference at the time. A GREAT Smithsonite. from the Jean Hamel and Jamie Bird collections
