Item Description

A very good, classic Microcline crystal that is well-terminated and contacted on the bottom. The crystal has good luster and is a variegated gray with a hint of beige. The small amount of etching exposes the grating pattern that is so characteristic of Microcline's microtwinning within the crystal structure. And being from the famous Himalaya Mine adds to the cachet. valued at $500
