Description

A deep colored, partly gemmy emerald crystal, 14 mm size, in typical mica schist matrix from the well-known alpine Habachtal locality. Very good green emerald color for the locality, with a hint of blue. An austrian classic.
Comes with antique Theodor Schuchardt (1829-1892) label. He established a chemical supply house and mineral dealership ("Chemische Fabrik & Mineralienhandlung") in 1865 in Muskau, in the Görlitz district in the Lusatian Neisse, Germany, where he had been placed in charge of the Princely Dutch Alum Works.
Schuchardt was a prominent seller of mineral specimens, and most of his labels carry a catalog number in the corner, suggesting that they were sold as a part of large sets.
Weight. 420 grams
