A characteristic translucent, white prismatic Quartz crystal from Wheal Crebor near to Tavistock in Devon, England. This multi-terminated Quartz crystal measures to 10.4 cm tall and is richly coated on three faces with dark brown, micro-crystallised Siderite plus four well-formed Siderite crystals measuring to 1.6 cm. This cabinet specimen has, what I regard as, a typical South West England appearance and feel to it; there is just something about such specimens which exudes Devon and Cornwall! The specimen comes with the previous collector's card label.
