Item Description

This is a nice display specimen from one of the most storied and well known districts in Colorado. The pegmatites near the Lake George area of Colorado have produced what most collectors and dealers consider to be the finest Amazonite specimens from the standpoint of superb color, top quality, wonderful display specimens and excellent associations. This particular specimen is a beautiful Microcline which is filled with sharp, well-formed, cream colored, slightly etched, lustrous, blocky crystals measuring up to 2.3 cm with minor associated Smoky Quartz. The best part of the piece is that a beautiful "Manebach" twinned crystal can be seen near the center. The piece has good aesthetics, and displays well from the front. Don't miss out on this Colorado "classic".
