Fluorite (classic material) (ex Kay Robertson Collection)

Item Description

A classic from what might be the most well-known locality in Los Angeles County. A group of sharp, lustrous, gemmy, classic green color Fluorites free of matrix. The habit is a combination of cube and dodecahedral faces which are arranged into an octahedral form. Great quality and no real damage to speak up save the base where it was removed from the pocket wall. The color is a saturated, STRONG green, especially for the size, and these piece are really difficult to obtain on the market these days. Ex Kay Robertson Collection (#12451). 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).
