One of the most successful examples of chatoyancy in Cerussite that we have ever seen. Not widely know, the species is actually capable of producing a razor-sharp eye - it is usually just a problem of consistency or inclusions that precludes really stunning examples. Aside from the smallest bit of unevenness this one is great - large presence with a very bright eye that moves easily. Great polish and a unique color as well. A collector’s rarity for sure.
