SOLD
Two stacked crystals, the larger one being doubly terminated and 2.1 cm across, of lustrous and translucent, golden yellow, cadmium rich smithsonite, form a competition quality miniature here. The back side one one lower face/edge has been contacted but it is of little significance as you would display the specimen for aesthetics anyhow. A beautiful cluster of this very rare, saturated yellow-amber color.
