A stunning, mirror-lustrous, symmetrical, "Iron Rose", of the classic Alpine style. It is associated with and accented by with minor albite, titanite and quartz. Superb composition. Ex Ralph Clark and Jim Houran Collections I cannot recall seeing one of these as such a perfect full thumbnail from this locality - and these really do seem brighter than the traditional Swiss examples. A complete Floater, 360 degrees !
