This small miniature twinned Cerussite specimen from Tsumeb mine is in incredible condition. Complete all round, it looks superb in several directions. Minor Mimetite can be seen at its base from where multiple twinned elongated tabular to bladed Cerussite crystals rise. The longest Cerussite crystal reaches 2.2 cm in length and all display a wonderful satiny to silky lustre. Ex Weyand collection, this is a superbly balanced specimen - a simply lovely miniature.
