Item Description
Camp Robin is a recent Madagascar locality and this excellent piece is from the 2006 find. The 3.0 cm, pristine, gemmy and lustrous, pretty raspberry-red, liddicoatite crystal is jauntily angled and aesthetically set in the unusual, segmented, platy feldspar matrix. Striking, highly representative and uncommon material from this recent find.
