This Dalnegorsk piece came with a $400 pricetag from the previous dealer, and you can see why. These beautifully-formed, mirror-metallic galenas (to 2 cm) sit on a matrix of slender quartz crystals, some of which have little balls of green quartz on them from a subsequent solution in the pocket. 11.4 x 9.5 x 4.6cm
