This large microcline is highlighted by a crystal which is almost 13 cm in length and 7 cm across. Not only does it have wonderful luster caused by the overgrowth, but the termination exhibits a stark white color. The addition of the smaller 6 cm crystal and the matrix of sub-cm size crystals all add to the elegance of the specimen, making it really stand out from the crowd here.
