From the supplier: There were many scholars, naturalists and antiquaries in the UK who built private mineral collections. The 17th century collectors included Sir Christopher Wren, William Cole and Sir Edmund Halley. In the 18th century, several collections became open to the public. These included those of Sir Ashton Lever, R. Rackstrow, Peter Crosthwaite, William Todhunter and Thomas Hutton. Other collections were also assembled by John Stackhouse, Henry Swinburne, John Hawkins, Charles Hatchett, Sir Humphrey Davy and George Bellas Greenough.
