Epidote - stacked crystal group
San Quintin, Municipio de Ensenada
Baja California, Mexico
3.3 x 2.5 x 1.9 CM (small miniature/ large thumbnail (toenail))
price: $200
new year 2021

A row of sharply terminated Epidote crystals are aligned in an epitaxial arrangement. From an old find at San Quintin in the Baja California region of Mexico, this comes from the remarkable Ernie Schlichter collection. Crystal faces alternate from highly lustrous and glassy to a more matte and frosted look. In very good condition damage-wise, just a few clean contacts and very tiny edge wear. Overall the form is a textbook fine arrangement and has a distinctive architecture. Nice example for the locality and a fine toenail of Epidote from any place.
