Mesolite (fine specimen) (ex Kay Robertson Collection)

Item Description

This is honestly the RICHEST specimen of Mesolite that we've seen from Rupe di Aci Castello. This beautiful small cabinet display specimen features a multitude of lovely snow-white "balls" of Mesolite measuring up to 6 mm across coating a thin layer of underlying host rock matrix. The vast majority of the "balls" are undamaged and are wonderful to view up close. Valued at $500. Ex Kay Robertson Collection (#1305). 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).
