..I saw that my photos of the new display were moved to a separate thread. Good idea, but please could you chance my name in the topic from "Toby" to "Tobi", for there's no Y in my name ;-)...

Oops, sorry. Already fixed ;-)

Very nice collection Tobi, I particularly like the white background in the cabinet, it adds some reflective, infill light to better accentuate the crystal specimens.

Very nice display Tobi. It looks like there is room for one more glass shelf above the quartz shelf.

I love your pyromorphite from Grube Gute Hoffnung, and of course all of the galenas (my favorite mineral).

Regards,
Michael

Thanks to all of you who enjoyed my collection impressions! All of the several specimens you mentioned can be seen in better photo quality and with size information on Mindat:

Don, the mimetite from Black Forest:

...and the melanite from Mali:
