SOLD
A beautiful and classic, old-time English specimen of a multitude of very glassy and gemmy, hematite-tinted, pink calcite scalenohedrons on a matrix of botryoidal hematite "kindey" ore from the famous iron mines at Frizington. The pink tinting, crystal glassiness and the hedgehog pattern of scalenohedrons are mesmerizing. Material of this quality was collected around 1900 or earlier. A fine English calcite from the Karl Warning Collection. Obtained from Gene Schlepp of Western Minerals in 1991 at the Tucson Show.
