Item Description
An aesthetic and colorful cluster of sharply terminated, pearlescent off-white microcline crystals with textbook crystal form from the Herb Obodda dealer stock. The orangy-brown iron oxide coating really adds pizzazz to this sculptural piece. The large crystal is 6.2 cm. In great shape, overall. The contacts, where other crystals once lay, have no damage, per se and periphery wear is certainly only a minimal detraction. Oxide coating Shigar Valley microclines are uncommon.
