AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Extensive vintage collection of minerals and rocks, originating from an older private collection. Mineralogical Club – 23 collection boxes + large specimens, agates and documentation

The main part consists of 23 original square collection boxes (5 kg), each divided into four compartments and provided with the original Dutch names. This means this section alone comprises a very large and diverse assortment of minerals and rocks.

Represented are, among others, agate, amethyst, rock crystal, chrysoprase, opal, obsidian, pyrite, chalcopyrite, celestite, hematite, jasper, labradorite, sodalite, tourmaline, fluorite, sulfur, copper, smithsonite, prehnite, rhodonite, chalcedony and many other types.

In addition, the collection contains a large number of loose larger minerals and rocks, crystal groups and several nicely polished agate slabs. Among the loose pieces there are both rough and polished specimens in varying sizes (4 kg).

The collection also includes original documentation from the Mineralogische Club, including The Guide for the Collector and a large number of illustrated collection/information cards.

An attractive and very diverse older collection, interesting as a complete collecting set, educational mineral set, or as a basis for further expansion.
