SOLD
A very large, spectacular specimen of superb galena crystals: shiny-metallic, razor-sharp, and piled up in dramatic, architectural forms. The clusters of galenas are isolated in places amongst patches of gemmy quartz crystals. They measure to several cms and are MUCH sharper in person. The shadows atop are because it was easier to shoot this upside down and flip the pic, in order to really show the sharpness of all crystals at once. This wonderful large specimen came out of an Eastern European museum collection. 19.6 x 13.2 x 4.5cm
