Description/Interesting Notes: A fantastic combination of several rare species from the type locality in Sweden!!! This specimen consists of a combination of massive and scaly pinkish red cerite in association with black ferriallanite, olive green tornebohmite, and bright green brochantite!!! There are other unidentified species in association as well!!! The small stereoscope pictures shown below depict an unidentified crystal that is sharp, highly lustrous, gem clear, and has a rich pink color similar to morganite!!! There are 3 such crystals around the specimen, measuring up to 1mm!!! There is a lot going on with this specimen indeed!!! The pictures don't even come close to doing it justice!!! A very rich and significant example of rare species from Sweden!!! This specimen retains old labels from William J. Webb, the Sunshine Acres School (a very "unique" fully accredited private school - circa 1939, it was part of the nation's first Nudist colony), and the Wintringham Collection!!!
