A very nice and quite showy adularia specimen with the typical alpine habit crystals and greenish inclusions of a chlorite group mineral. Quite an old timer from the Dr. Krantz stock, very good condition. The provenance from St. Gotthard is question marked on the label but this is a quite typical specimen from the area.
