The NY-NJ Gem & Mineral Show Part 5

Here is the next round of public display cases. Featured here are the amazing Herkimer Diamonds that were present at the show. Tom Kapelelewski is renowned for his outstanding Herkimer Diamond collection, considered to be one of the finest in the world. Tom had put together a dazzling display, replete with a crystal pool of crystals and a women statue dipping her toe into the crystal pool. What's even more amazing about this display is that Tom and his sons have self collected all the Herkimer Diamonds in this case over the 50+ years!

Also included in this post are some other fine New Jersey collections.
