Cinnabar, Quartz and Dolomite (RARE combo) Taylor Hunt Coll.

Item Description

Sculptural, excellent and RARE small cabinet combination from the well-known Tongren Mine. A cute cluster of lustrous, translucent, rich red cinnabar crystals is aesthetically set at the base of a striking RARE 6.5 cm terminated quartz crystal. The large 1.2 cm cinnabar crystal is a drill bit-twin. The tip of the glassy and lustrous quartz crystal is water-clear above the translucent body and the stepped-growth prism faces really enhance the specimen. The cinnabar and quartz crystals are aesthetically set in a vug lined with the typical complementary contrasting accessory of the lustrous cream-colored dolomite rhombohedrons. RARE older combination material from the 1980s. Choice material from the Taylor Hunt Collection.
