An aesthetic Irv Brown thumbnail collection specimen of lustrous, brown pyromorphite prisms with colorless terminations from the famous Bad Ems District of Germany. Both ends of the piece are highly displayable. One end has a large hoppered crystal, while the other end consists of a very showy spray of smaller prisms with colorless terminations. The minor contacting is certainly not detracting. Classic, old-time material. 2.0 x 1.5 x 1.3 cm
