RM3160   Chalcedony
More photos

This specimen has a bit of history... The piece was acquired in May 1987 at a fair in Segovia that was held in the Lozoya tower. At that time the labels were rather "approximate". This specimen was labeled as "Poitiers" chalcedony. Looking for intertwined information between chalcedony and France, it turns out that there is a locality where similar chalcedonies appear, near Vienne, in Mauprévoir. Curiously, this locality is in a historical region named Poitou-Charentes (Peitau i Charantas in Occitan), which makes us think that the correct locality is Mauprévoir. Old and fine specimen.


Size: 7.6 x 6.4 x 4.5 cm.
Found in ±1987.
