SIM – Plate 26b
Plate 26, Fig. 49, 1% Gold chloride and 1% Quicksilver chloride equal quantities mixed: Again the result shows unusual beauty in colour and form. The dark shades in the middle are bluish purple, of slightly metallic lustre. A narrow light band weaves near the top, having the light mauve shade of lavender. The centre is topped with golden yellow and both’ sides are dark mauve, similar to the experiment with silver and gold. The golden yellow did not occur in any single experiment of the previous series carried out during the Spring Equinox. This experiment we must also classify as unusually beautiful and impressive.
