Description

This is not your typical Bulgarian galena. It is a superb example of the species as it shows a large main crystal with high luster and beautiful patterns with a few sidecar crystals of different habit and fine yellowish calcite with black sphalerite. An aesthetic miniature in excellent condition and a very fine galena from anywhere.
