Description

Nearly the entire front side of this stunning plate-like specimen presents sharp, resplendent Albite crystals from Weiss Nolla. Each of the crystals have incredibly smooth, striated faces that are heavily accented by the Albite's intense vitreous luster. Like the more amorphous material at the center of the specimen, the base of the Albites have a milky white color but become more gemmy and colorless towards the tips of the crystals. This piece comes with a custom acrylic base. From the collection of Daniel "Dan" R. Kennedy.
