- TCH14
- Cinnabar on Quartz With Dolomite
- Tongren Mine, Tongren, Guizhou, China
- Miniature, 4.2 x 3.0 x 3.0 cm
- SOLD
This is an oldstyle specimen from finds in the early 90s or even the late 80s, with 1-cm TWINNED cinnabars perched upon matrix of sparkling quartz crystals! It is extremely pretty and the sparkle of the quartz makes for a wonderful contrast to the lipstick-red cinnabars. The crystals are very freestanding and 3-dimensional, rare in such quality.
