Dazzling red Realgar crystals grown in very sculptural cluster with Galena and Sphalerite. Realgar has intense red color with waxy faces. Intense yellow Orpiment layer cover partially some crystals and give superb contrast. Sharp Galena crystals with some skeletal features form the base. Sphalerite octahedrons with brown coating form a cluster. Small Quartz crystals are seen too. In very good condition – some small nicks and outside edge contacts (seen on the photos).

Superb!
