Classic old time specimen from Namibia with a gigantic sharply formed crystal of cuprite 7.0 cm across, this coated by green malachite, and set nicely up on a matrix of crystallized dolomite. At one time part of the collection of Uli Baumann. I think that this is in very good condition. The specimen comes with a custom acrylic display base.
