Item Description

Pearlescent stepped-growth albite crystals in a surreal pattern are beautifully accented by the fan of olive-green epidote blades at the base and the nifty, preferential iron oxide-coating on this very aesthetic and rare combination from an obscure Californina locale. Ex Bob Trimingham Collection and acquired in 2004 in San Francisco.
