Item Description

A RARE, superb and rich mounded 360-degree specimen of densely intergrown, sharp, lustrous, translucent, multi-hued tan anglesite crystals from this obscure Sonora locale. The impressive crystals reach 2.1 cm and many are doubly terminated, including the largest crystal. Ex Kay Robertson Collection # 6041 and acquired from Willard Perkin at the 1969 MSSC Show. The piece also comes with a display label of that era. Kay is a prominent California collector, who specialized in European classics (see the article in the March-April, 2007 Mineralogical Record and the 50+ page article in the German Magazine "Mineralien-Welt" November-December 2017). Rare older Mexico anglesite seldom on the market.
