Item Description
A rare, outstanding and aesthetic combination specimen from this well-known New Hampshire locale. Lustrous, sharp, brown, octagonal zircon crystals to 4 mm are peppered on the strikingly sculptural cluster of extremely sharp, pearlescent microcline crystals. The impressive, doubly terminated large crystal is 2.6 cm and is pristine. The sharp, secondary crystal is 2.1 cm. Schorls are embedded on the back of the piece. Very rare in this combination quality. Ex Schlichter Collection.
