Item Description

An approximately 5 x 5 x 4 cm feldspar sits in the middle of its perch of cleavelandite matrix here, making for a really attractive feldspar small cabinet piece. The appeal as a specimen is due to the balance of the piece, its complete 360-degree display quality, and the porcelain smooth faces. Normally, you'd have to say these are big clunkers when you do see them. This is a, rarely, aesthetic matrix feldspar from Brazil, valued $300-400. 220 grams
