Item Description

Classic OLD material and excellent combination material from Franklin and the Art Sorgaroli Collection. A very sharp, 3.0 x 2.5 x 2.0 cm, lustrous, brown willemite crystal is dramatically perched atop matrix of granular willemite, massive calcite and small franklinite sections. The sharp, 1.3 cm, lightly bruised franklinite crystal perched on the edge is a super accent. The willemite crystal is complete all-around. The bit of noted bruising on a couple of corners is certainly only a modest detraction to this exceptionally fine, sharply crystallized combination example. Bright green willemite and dark pink calcite fluorescence. valued $750-950
