Rare New York Ruby crystal! Translucent with a nice red color and tabular, hexagonal form. From an old collection, these were rarely found in the Franklin Marble that runs from Sussex Co., New Jersey north into Orange Co., New York. This was likely found in Amity, Warwick, New York. A seldom seen New York classic.
