Description/Interesting Notes:
A fantastic example of rare, crystalline cryolite with thomsenolite from Greenland!!! This specimen boasts a broad face covered with
sharp, cubic crystals of cryolite!!! The cryolite crystals are sharp and lustrous!!! There is a thin layer of brown iron staining that,
in person, further highlights the crystals (which are difficult
to appreciate in the pics)!!! Crystalline examples of cryolite are quite
rare indeed!!! This is a fantastic, old time example!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! This specimen retains its original
Seaman Museum collection label with L.L. Hubbard (1849-1933) notation!!! The pics hardly do it justice - must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS
WILL BE ADDED MONDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 3-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY JUNE 10th!!!
