| Item # MV126008 Leaf shaped, layered, Muscovite Sheet Mica (isinglass) $24.95 (+$4.80 shipping) |
Leaf shaped, layered, Muscovite Sheet Mica (isinglass)
Very unique shaped specimen of well defined Muscovite Mica Layers. Mica (or isinglass) was used in early automobiles
as window stock before the use of silica glass became popular. It is still used today in Wood Stoves as a viewing port
lens due to the fact that Mica is both translucent and refractory. That means you can see through it and it will not burn
or melt. This piece is from an old collection we recently acquired and comes from along the California-Nevada mountain
ranges. Weighs 61g and measures 3.8 x 2.1 x 0.4 inches (9.6 x 5.3 x 1 cm)
