A CLASSIC, sculptural, old-time Cornwall specimen of a vug filled with GEMMY, dark cherry-red cuprite crystals to 6 mm from the famous Wheal Phoenix. Ex A.G. Moss Collection. This is very rare material and although there are spots of damage here and there, there is also quite good coverage of superb crystals of the highest quality, scaterred liberally. 5.0 x 2.7 x 2.6 cm
