A "famous" piece from the collection, called "the starburst," this was one of the most treasured cerussites in the lot. It is remarkably pristine and complete all around, standing upright on that small rock pedestal via a single extending point of the perfect twinned crystal. Erik Louw was a miner on the dioptase stope who traded extensively and accumulated one of the finest Tsumeb miniatures collections, purchased in entirety by the Sussmans in the late 1990's. 7.5 x 5 x 4 cm
