Uncommon specimen of stepped and bended Galena decorated by gem Sphalerite var. Cleiophane and Chalcopyrite. Geometrical perfection by sharp Galena cubes displaying formidable terraced growth.

Some small Chalcopyrite crystals are seen too.  In very good condition – some small nicks and outside edge contacts.

Neat bended Galena!
