Item Description
A dramatic and beautiful, large cleavelandite specimen from the famous Sapo Mine. The lustrous, pearlescent blades have a striking swirled pattern and the piece has a fine sculptural form.

Albite specimens are rare and very rarely on the market from this noted locale and this is an outstanding example. Valued at $500-650
