Dazzling blood-red Realgar crystals grown in very sculptural cluster with Galena and Quartz. Realgar has intense red color with waxy faces. Intense yellow Orpiment layer cover partially some crystals and give superb contrast. Sharp Galena crystal and Sphalerite are present at the base. Two Quartz crystals give splendid finish to the specimen. In good condition – some nicks and base contacts (seen on the photos). On acrylic base.              

Beautiful!
