A complete, complex and beautiful spinel-twinned galena from Eastern Europe, standing beautifully on its side, accented with gemmy quartz crystals. This galena twin is complete on both sides and edges. If you look closely you can see complicated hoppering and wave-like tiers on some of the faces. Wonderful example of this twinning phenomenon in galena!
