Les Farges Mine, Ussel, Correze, Limousin, France
Toenail, 2.9 x 2.2 x 1.1 cm
SOLD
An unusually aesthetic Les Farges pyromorphite toenail. Two highly lustrous, strongly hoppered, fat, opposing, mustard-brown prisms make up the cap of this sculptural, T-shaped specimen. Smaller pyromorphites make up the stem of the "T." Once more, this famed locale shows off the myriad forms and colors of this mineral. Les Farges closed in 1981. Ex. Jaime Bird Collection.
