Even if you have seen dozens of faceted Cerussites, it is likely you have never seen one done this well before. The cutting is superb and the level of dispersion is dazzling - an optical property that is not often brought to its greatest potential in this material. This is a lovely older collection gem from Tsumeb - the body color is a fine light grey that really sets off the high optical properties of Cerussite; the polish is excellent and visible dispersion is impressive. Very fine and manageable size for the collection - a superb precision cut rarity.
