We give a new geometric model for the quantization of the 4-dimensional conical (nilpotent) adjoint orbit O of SL(3, ). The space of quantization is the space of holomorphic functions on 𝕔 2 - {0}) which are square integrable with respect to a signed measure defined by a Meijer G-function. We construct the quantization out a non-flat Kaehler structure on 𝕔 2 - {0}) (the universal cover of O) with Kaehler potential ρ |z|4.
