Description

The adularia shows superb quality - it is partly clear like a rock crystal. The crystals are razor sharp terminated and all faces are highly lustrous. And there is one more indicator which has this specimen in common with quartz - it shows a significant "faden", which is clear visible on my photography - but even better in person. Developed as floater, no significant damages to report.
