Description

This piece is really rare and hard to come by. Light orange scheelite has grown in between black tourmaline var. schörl and some quartz. A very nice color contrast! With UV lighting the scheelite shows an orange color. This piece comes from an old collection that was acquired by the collector in 1969. The old collection was started in 1860 and sold in 1969. The old collection label from the second owner is included.
