Item Description

Classic sharp Carlsbad-twinned orthoclase crystals are known from several Bulgarian localities, but specimens are rare and are seldom on the market. A textbook 3.0 cm tan twin is aesthetically set on the very coarse-grained igneous matrix. Muscovite flakes on the twin are a nice accent. Ex Rob Sielecki Collection.
