Description

Coming from the ancient Roman mines of Tharsis, this piece is made up of crystals on a cerussite matrix. The crystals form a striking and whimsical composition, the rarity of this formation in this place being surprising. We also appreciate an addition of Campylite and mimetite crystals with a majestic shine and a yellow tone that stands out in the piece in question. The matrix is ​​limonite and goethite. A very aesthetic specimen.
