Description

Interesting old timer from A.A. Damour: a small lot of corundum crystals (most blue) from "India" (Ceylon). Size is for the largest crystal. This box resided in an old and dusted drawer at Krantz. Originally there must have been more crystals in the box - this is what i found. Very nice old label.
