In 1994 we purchased a large collection (accumulation) of Russian minerals,
fossils and cutting
rough while on a loose gem buying trip to Moscow. We shipped it home and
have sold a few items
from it over the years and left the rest to languish in a huge pile of boxes in
storage. As we get deeper
into "the hoard" we are finding many large and unusual pieces. Some
museum quality, some decorator
quality, some
cabinet quality, some desk and coffee table sizes/qualities and even some that would
best be used as
"outdoor" decorations
or "doorstops." Below find a very small sampling of this material.
