Description:Adularia is another one of the gem quality Feldspars and is actually a variety of Orthoclase. The material is often found in "Alpine-type" formations but rarely in gem quality crystals. This stone is from the famous Austrian Alps and would make for a very rare gem to add to your collection. These gems are simply not seen on the market, especially in this clarity ! Most Adularia crystals from this area are "milky" in appearance and have what''s called "adularescence". This stone is virtually eye clean, and shows a VERY light blue color sheen when rotated in the light. The stone has a "Square" cut. Gems of this clarity are not often seen on the market, especially from the classic Austrian Alps ! A great "collector" gem, and much more than just a colorless Feldspar.
