Description

Cut and polished agate specimen with evident blue/grey to white banding. 

This specimen comes from the Flurin Meissen collection, a renowned Swiss collector very prolific in the 50s-70s.

This is one of his very few non-Swiss specimens. The acquisition of non-Swiss material back in the days was rather unusual, and it is not hard to imagine that such a specimen must have costed him a rather high price as 'exotic'.
