Phlogopite Mica
Franklin, Sussex County, New Jersey
72mm x 56mm x 50mm
OK, at first glance a beast only an East Coast collector could love, but lets at least all admit it seems a relatively GOOD mica intrinsically, with sharp 3-dimensional form and a nice overall look. The chocolate color is also attractive. Most specimens from Franklin are true oldtimers and this is no exception, certainly historic (said to date to teh Canfield Collection, and traded out of the Franklin Musuem some time later) . The piece has a waxy lustre with a rich coffee color.$950
