Description

A lively specimen of many differently sized yet very sharp and slender prismatic crystals of Smithsonite, pale-smoky coloured with a hint of peach. The crystals are impressively transparent with bright lustre, and striated crystal faces, and some are doubly terminating - the largest crystals individually get to 1.7cm long. Limited damage, mostly to a few peripheral crystals, although very good condition overall. Displays well from many different angles.
