Spessartine with Quartz
specimen number:
2023273
location:
Wushan Spessartine Mine, Tongbei, Yunxiao Co., Zhangzhou Prefecture, Fujian Province, China
description:
Beautiful combination specimen showing large sharply formed deep red satiny crystals of spessartine to almost 1.0 cm in size draped over a grouping of smoky quartz crystals measuring 7.5 x 5.0 x 3.5 cm. The smoky quartz crystals are glassy and show translucency. This shows nicely all around and sits perfectly by itself for display. I'm sure one can find very minimal micro-chipping on this piece, I think it in very fine condition. Good large spessartine crystals on this one. Shipping weight: 0.35 pounds. Ex Chris and Agatha Galas collection.
Size: 7.5 x 5.0 x 3.5 cm (small-cabinet)
