Titanite (ex. A.E. Foote circa 1900)

Item Description

Titanite specimens from Renfrew County are an old-time Canadian classics, and they are not often available. This fine crystal is a sharp and lustrous, with a deep brown color. The tiered habit is attractive, and gives this miniature an aesthetic all it's own. This is a choice example of the species and for the locality. These pieces are part of a century-old Italian collection that was recently acquired. The AE Foote label dates it well (https://mineralogicalrecord.com/biographies_labels/footea-e/)
