An attractive and geometric cluster of prismatic, reticulate twinned cerussite crystals with minor matrix. This is a classic cerussite from the Mammoth-St Anthony mine consisting of ivory, prismatic crystals to 2 cm in length exhibiting a vitreous to satin luster. Twinning is evident from multiple orientations and forms a spectacular geometric array. Great composition and balance! Ex. William Pinch collection with label.
