Item Description

This is a very attractive old time Epidote specimen from one of the most famous localities in Alaska. A wonderful group of very sharp and lustrous, well-formed prismatic dark green crystals of Epidote with "chisel"-shaped terminations. Only a tiny bit of damage on the display side. Classic big broad crystals that are only seen in the old specimens! Valued at $800. Ex Kay Robertson Collection (#8379). 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).
