Description
Here we have a very rare old German classic - superb, slightly fibrous sprays of Malachite lining gossan matrix, from Germany´s ancient mining district in Siegerland. The elongated crystals of Malachite, which reach up to 5 mm individually, have an adamantine luster that is nothing short of fantastic, and a deep forest green colour that complements the luster perfectly. These crystals are not large by worldwide standards, but they are stunning by the standards of old German Malachites, and important for the location and the style. An old specimen, rare on the market and consequently hard to obtain.
