Description

An excellent specimen of orange-brown titanite nicely perched on top of white adularia crystals. This matrix specimen features over half a dozen adularia crystals of good lustre and shape, and the two titanite crystals are perfectly contrasting with them.
Titanites are in very good consitions, featuring very good lustre and some local transparency too.

Well balanced and unusually clean. From the former collection Lehmann (CH), it dates back to the late 80s.
