Item Description
A cute and sculptural thumbnail cluster of parallel-growth, tabular, textbook hexagonal ruby crystals from this less well-known Madagascar locale. The lustrous, partially translucent crystals have classic pigeon-blood red color. The striated faces and bit of attached matrix add pizzazz. Ex Kay Robertson Collection # 11872 and acquired from the Melansons at the 1989 Tucson Show. 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). A showy, classic and colorful cluster of Madagascar rubies. Cherry-red fluorescence.
