Item Description
The Organ Mountains of New Mexico have produced an impressive, CABINET-sized, feldspar specimen. Lustrous, stacked, pastel-pink feldspar crystals are richly and preferentially coated with very sharp, parallel-growth, pearlescent, bone-white feldspar crystals. The branching nature of the pink feldspar crystals really adds character to this striking piece. A most interesting United States feldspar specimen from the Tom Massis and Dave Stoudt Collections. I have never seen another quite like it from here, in this size and quality. Valued $400
