Item Description

Classic brilliant emerald green micro sparkling crystals of Dioptase cover the display side of this miniature display specimen from the Christmas Mine. As mentioned, the crystals are small, but are fun to view with magnification. A great piece for any fan of Dioptase or Arizona minerals. Ex Kay Robertson Collection (#2706). 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).
