Small Cabinet, 7.3 x 4.7 x 2.6 cm
SOLD
The world famous Les Farges Mine of France produced a stunning variety of pyromorphite crystals during its short production history from 1975 to 1981. This very aesthetic and super-rich specimen features one of the more desirable varietals: lustrous olive-green prisms with distinctive, hoppered, mustard-yellow tips. The larger pyromorphites are beautifully concentrated in the center of the oxide-covered, snow-white, ship-shaped baryte matrix.
