Item Description

A beautiful display piece featuring wonderful Fluorite crystals from the well-known Clara Mine. Very sharp, GEM to gemmy cubes of nearly colorless Fluorite measuring up to 9 mm can be seen associated with milky Quartz crystals on this small cabinet display specimen. The quality is excellent all around, save the periphery where the piece was removed from the pocket. A great piece to add to a German collection, a secondary mineral collection or a suite of German classics. The largest Quartz crystal measures 5 mm. Ex Kay Robertson Collection (#D-925). 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 wonderful German classic from the famous locality. Approximate value is $700-$800.
