Large single spinel-twinned Galena crystal with attached black Sphalerite crystals. The Sphalerite cover much of the front face and some of the back face of the Galena, and also forms a perfect base for the crystal - it stands up vertically without need for a base. Complete all around, highly aesthetic, and undamaged. Purchased from a Russian dealer in Tucson 25+ years ago.
