Attractive glassy green crystals of titanite on matrix with milky white adularia. The titanite crystals are up to 1 cm long and are sprinkled across the matrix. Some of the crystals are nicely twinned! Minor edge wear present on a few small crystals does not detract, and visually it is a very rich specimen. The adularia forms blocky crystals and are as large as 2.7 cm across. Very historical specimen and the type of material the Hauck collection is full of - rare classics and locality pieces. Old label from an English collection, an Edna Doughty collection label, and a Hugh Ford label are included with piece. 10.6 x 5.6 x 4.3 cm
