Classic, lustrous, wet-look and curved lime-green pyromorphite crystals to 1.8 cm stacked on matrix covered with smaller pyromorphite crystals from the early 1980's finds. Curved pyro crystals were far less common than straight ones, and this older material from the 1980s has slightly better color than the modern era 1990s find. There are a couple of broken crystals on the back of the main crystal stack, but they are totally hidden and out of sight from the front. This is far and away one of the best display-quality miniatures of this material I have had since the Jaworski Collection. 4.3 x 3.5 x 3.1 cm
