The Kurt Hefendehl Collection
March 15, 2023 - A selection of specimens from the diverse and historic Kurt Hefendehl collection! Kurt was one of the great mineral collectors in Germany during the last 70 years and was well known in the mineral world all over Europe. He began collecting seriously at the age of 14 and his collection reached over 6000 pieces. He was very active until shortly before his passing in 2020 at the age of 82. We are honored to have the opportunity to bring the remainder of his collection to market over the next few years. Stay tuned!
