Item Description

Classic material from Santa Eulalia featuring radial groups of lilac Creedite measuring up to 1.1 cm across sitting beautifully on matte orange-yellow colored Smithsonite matrix. No damage and the fact that the Creedites are beautifully isolated makes it all the more desirable. Ex Kay Robertson Collection (#198). 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).
