SPECIAL MINERAL AUCTION - SPECIAL MINERAL AUCTION – Minerals of Southern California and Myanmar from the Collection of Bill Larson - Ends SATURDAY February 12, 2022

Our next entry of Fine Mineral Auctions from the holdings of the personal collection of dealer/collector Bill Larson (also known as "Burma Bill") assembled over 50+ years of collecting minerals from Southern California and over 40 trips and nearly 30 years of travel to Myanmar (Burma) in its heyday as a specimen producer.  

 We are proud to offer these newly acquired selections from Bill's recently-purchased personal collection.  A wonderful opportunity to get your hands on specimens rarely offered on the open market, some from more obscure localities, others are classics from some of the most renowned mines in Southern California and the largest and broadest collection of specimen quality Burmese minerals, gems, lapidary items and artifacts assembled to date. Such focused collections built by single people in lucky times of production, as this was, are educational treasures because we dealers do not even see such quantity and breadth to learn context, without studying such rare assemblages.

For further information on this collection, assembled prior to 2008 and in storage for all that time until now, and which we are honored to have been the ones chosen to release, please also see our Wisdom Pocket blog: https://www.irocks.com/burma-and-spinels-in-my-collection
