50,00

Beautifully sized, free-flowing, highly polished cerussite crystal from Villefranche de Rouergue, Aveyron department.
This mining district was exploited as early as Gallo-Roman times and into the Middle Ages, notably for silver, as well as copper, lead, tin and iron, until the early 20th century.
Really unusual!
