A CLASSIC, OLD-TIMER from Bad Ems, Germany of lustrous, brown pyromorphite prisms to 1.7 cm on nicely contrasting massive galena and vein quartz. There are some broken pyromorphite prisms, but many are also in good shape and so this is a highly representative piece from this famous locale. The vein quartz with the massive galena is not that common in Bad Ems specimens. Ex Richard Hauck Collection. 6.8 x 5.2 x 5.1 cm
