Note this is one of the largest specimens recovered in good condition, with any aesthetics to it; and is also particularly balanced and well-trimmed. The etched, skeletal, battleship-gray galena crystals are beautifully perched on a matrix of colorless quartz, with nearly all of them exhibiting amazing etching to their hollow cores, where only the crystal edges remain. Magnificent and aesthetic for the rich contrast to quartz!
