Item Description
This rare Feldspar species is not often seen in gems from any locality. It is only found in a few places in the world as clean stones. This gem is virtually eye clean, and has quite a bit of "life" to it for a smaller stone. It has a nice "Oval Step" cut, and actually has a very slight greenish-blue overtone. This is confirmed Oligoclase, and not Anorthite or Orthoclase. This is the real deal, so don't miss out.
