This classic twinned Cerussite crystal is from the David Hardman collection and was likely obtained by him in the 1970s. Miniature in size it displays a lovely shape, has some very gemmy portions and the only apparent damage is on the reverse where one of the 'branches' of the twin displays a conchoidally fractured surface. Otherwise, it is a very sweet Cerussite and the tips of the crystals have a lovely slightly smoky colour to them.
