Description

This is a superfine thumbnail of pale meat coloured, well developed Wagnerite crystals flanking a single, gemmy Quartz.  The Wagnerite is sharp edged, lustrous and almost transparent. Most of this specimens I have seen over the years featured more or less altered Wagnerite without any luster or terminations. But not this one,- and it comes with two antique labels.
