This is a superb microcline specimen from Argentina. The crystals are razor-sharp, and they have a light pastel salmon color (a little deeper in person) that adds to the beauty. You can see a little "snowfall" of albite on some of the crystals. From the collection of Argentine dealer Eduardo Jawerbaum.
