Ex. Les Fils d'Émile Deyrolle (Paris, 1896-1950's). Comes with the typical Deyrolle box but no label.

In June last year, Alain Martaud and I acquired parts of an old family collection in Marseille, gathered up between the late XIXth century and the 1960's by successive generations of collectors (probably city dignitaries).
This collection featured hundreds of specimens that were exclusively purchased from Deyrolle, a prominent Parisian naturalist dealer in this period, and had been kept stored in their original box until today, carefully sorted in several custom-made wooden mineral drawer cabinets.
The specimens by themselves date back from the early XIXth century up to the first half of the XXth century and consist mostly in European and American classics, as well as rare species and systematics ore samples.

Here is an old specimen from Allevard mine featuring small galena crystals on quartz and yellow siderite. The back side is recrystallised.

Hard to come by!

Seller's Story

Cristosud is a company based in Lyon, France, offering a selection of fine quality French and international minerals, with particular emphasis on distinctive pieces and specimens that make you think! ~~~ As a naturalist geologist and observer collector, I am endlessly amazed by how natural processes lead to the formation of highly complex objects. Behind this complexity hides a fascinating beauty that human eyes can perceive. Minerals and crystals are stunning samples of natural beauty, everlasting sources of amazement and thinking that the collector can keep at home.

Grezzo davvero molto particolare e bellissimo!!! Soddisfattissima del mio nuovo pezzo da collezione! L'attesa lunghissima non è stata colpa del venditore, ma di uno sciopero del corriere.
