Item Description
A super combination piece from a classic and closed locality. Taewha Mine scheelites were long considered to be the world"s finest, until recently. Very sharp, highly lustrous and translucent, gray-brown, scheelite octahedrons to 1.9 cm are aesthetically scattered on a terminated quartz crystal along with nifty and complimentary rosettes of tan dolomite rhombs. This excellent piece has fine architecture and displays very well. The primary scheelites are pristine. Ghostly white fluorescence on the scheelites. Ex Marty Zinn Collection # 6815. Valued at $1000-1250.
