Smoky Quartz on Microcline (Amazonite) (Ref: 18.1-611)
Government Pit, Albany, Carrol County, New Hampshire, United States
47mm x 38mm x 30mm
minID: 34U-VXA
A neat miniature hosting a fine Dauphine twin Quartz that has gem clear transparency. A New England classic, these are often compared with the well-known Colorado specimens but are quite different in person. the matrix is well crystallized Amazonite, with the blue green color most desirable from New Hampshire. Ex Ernie Schlichter collection, this was collected by him in the heyday of the Government pit digging. The luster is excellent and glassy on the Quartz and a pleasant matte finish on the Feldspars making a nice contrast. These are from an old stash and are not at all common on the marketFrom: Well-Arranged Molecules
