Item Description

A nifty, sculptural and uncommon adularia specimen from the "Alpine-type" deposits at Alchuri and the Herb Obodda dealer stock. Two prominent "fadens" or strings are clearly visible in and on the beautiful intergrown, water-clear, light green, tabular adularia crystals. Slender green diopside blades on one side are a fine accent. Excellent, two-sided and rare material in this quality from this locale.
