Lustrous, coloress, nail-head calcite rhombs to 3.5 cm richly and attractively cover the cabinet quartz matrix on this fine, old-time, cabinet, combination specimen from the iron mines of Cumbria, England. This is classic combination material from this renowned locale. Probably old, but no telling how old. Ex. Russell Jones Collection. Outstanding pink fluorescence.
