Description
You know what a classic specimen is when you look at this wonderful Zircon micro mount from a stream in the picturesque town of Espaly-Saint-marcel in south central France. Gemmy, deep orange-brown, and with a strong adamantine luster. This beautiful specimen, mounted on the tip of a needle in a glass vial with an attached German label, exudes history. I would love to know more about the provenance of that piece.
