Almandine     Pearl Lake, New Hampshire. Ex. Ernie and Vera Schlichter Collection. Another fine New England specimen seldom seen on today’s market. This miniature measuring 3.6 x 3.2 x 3.1 cm is composed of numerous well-formed garnets to 1.3 cm each in mica schist. Most stand out of the matrix nicely and are in good condition. One tiny ding and one partial crystal. Outstanding condition for crystals broken out of a solid matrix. Deep red color and minor translucence. Sawed base. A very fine and rare piece.   $95
