In addition to standard abreviations (FL, SW, LW, PH) please note the following used to describe LW FL:  P=pink, OP=orange-pink, BP=bluish-pink, CP=creamy pink, CB= creamy bluish, CW=creamy whitish. Also:  TC=Terlingua calcite, HC=hydrocarbon inclusions.

TCC 5101
 
 $28

Nearly 4" high x 2 3/4" wide; 248 g.; couple of HC inclusions; some green FL (SW) chalcedony on top of piece; LW = P + BP with a yellowish (SW & LW) area on back

TCC 5103
 
 $30

Nearly 3" wide x 2 3/4" high; 256 g.; lots of green FL (SW) tiny chalcedony balls with quartz crystal terminations at upper left make this a special piece; also several H.C. inclusions (FL creamy white LW); LW = P

TCC 5105
 
 $22

About 2 3/4" x 2 3/4"; 257 g.; LW = light pink

TCC 5107
 
 $24

About 2 3/4" x 2 3/4"; 384 g.; cleaved crystal terminations on back; LW = P with specks of BP & OP

TCC 5109
 
 $30

About 4" long x 2 1/2" high; 456 g.; massive with excellent FL; large triangular zone on far right grades from pale pink (daylight) at the top to dark, nearly raspberry pink at the bottom - highly unusual!; dings at top left detract slightly from the otherwise superb piece; LW = "hot" pink with some BP

TCC 5111
 
 $30

About 4" wide x 3 3/4" high; about 1 3/4 lbs.; massive with excellent FL but dings give this a special price; "hot" P with some BP

TCC 5102
 
 $25

About 3 1/4" wide x 3" high; 341 g.; cleaved vertically through a scalenohedral crystal showing an excellent cross section;
LW = P, BP, CP

TCC 5104
 
 $24

Nearly 3" high x 2 1/4" wide; 210 g.; sharp FL zones, lines and dots; some green FL on back; LW = P

TCC 5106
 
 $32

About 3 1/4" x 3 1/4"; a shade over 1 lb with some baked clay matrix; very unusual brownish (daylight) zones in the center of the piece that FL normally but the PH fades a little faster than normal;
LW = P plus BP, CP & a hint of OP

TCC 5108
 
 $20

About 3 1/2" high x 3" wide; 501 g.; dings on the face and some barite adding to the weight discount this piece;
LW = mostly P with several BP zones

TCC 5110
 
 $38

3 1/2" high x 3 1/4" wide; 674 g.; solid chunk of crystalline TC; dozens of small triangular zones throughout this piece;
LW = shades of P

TCC 5112
 
 $35

4 1/2" long x 2 1/2" high; just over 1 1/2 lbs.; good clean face; displays well;
LW = light P, some grading to BP
