Description
A magnificent historical sample, still in its original state.
These are pearly white cerussite crystals associated with green pyromorphite. The sample (partially crumbled, but with good quality pieces) is beautifully presented in its original box. The original box and an antique label from the comptoir minéralogique et géologique F. Pisani in Paris are supplied.
Cerussite and pyromorphite from Missouri, USA (United States).
Specimen from the De Chalendar collection, a family of industrialists who built up a mineralogical collection focusing on iron, manganese and other ores in the 19th and 20th centuries.
