Item Description

Superb combination piece from the Sawtooth Wilderness. The 3.7 cm crystal book of Zinnwaldite is excellent, and it rests on a bed of .5 cm Albite crystals that have as beautiful a rich pink fluorescence as you could ask for. These, in turn, are underlain by Orthoclase crystals. Ex. Richard Kosnar, this is an excellent and aesthetic combination piece from the Sawtooth Mountains.
