{"product_id":"calcite-452","title":"CALCITE","description":"A classic, gemmy, clear Calcite crystal-lined vug in iron ore from the famous West Cumberland Iron Field. Specimens like this are icons of the once bustling iron mining industry. Although iron mining in the area dates back to the 18th century, or earlier, fine mineral specimens didn't start to reach collectors until about the 1890s and then arrived in abundance and in world-class quality. Small cabinet in size and showing some lovely crystals, their quality is not quite the perfection which would make it a four-figure specimen, but they are very gemmy and have attractive orange-red staining of Hematite associated with them. Ex Malcolm Southwood Collection.","brand":"Crystal Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46793762898095,"sku":"CC48460","price":500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/8516\/2671\/files\/CC48460.png?v=1784019096","url":"https:\/\/crystalclassics.com\/products\/calcite-452","provider":"Crystal Classics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
