Pyromorphite
Rosenberg Mine, Braubach, Bad Ems District, Lahn valley, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany
Miniature, 3.6 x 2.2 x 2.0 cm
SOLD
Green German pyromorphites have always been highly desirable and are much rarer than the brown ones in good specimens. This classic and excellent miniature specimen is nearly solid pyromorphite with a bit of quartz. Sharp, lustrous, green prisms richly and aesthetically cover the piece. The cute, upright, smokestack-like crystal is 1.0 cm. Obviously old material, but no proof. Ex. John Ydren Collection.
