This is a lovely, bi-colored cluster of lustrous and translucent pyromorphite, in crystals to 1.3 cm in length. The colors of the crystals range from a brownish-green on the prism faces to an emerald green on the terminal faces. Quite a fine miniature from France's most famous pyromorphite deposit. From the Howard Belksy Collection. There is some contact damage on the back side, but it displays beautifully from the front!
