Item Description

A very showy and aesthetic small cabinet combination from the famous Elmwood Mine. Two fine "rosettes" of classic, highly lustrous, partially translucent rubyjack sphalerite crystals dramatically flank a cleft with gemmy calcite crystals, sparkly drusy quartz crystals and a few small dolomite rhombs. The cute, well-placed, doubly terminated and twinned calcite crystal is 2.4 cm. Classic and highly representative combination material. Older, 1980s-90s material from the Consie Prince Collection.
