A classic, older cabinet specimen from the Rhone Glacier of Switzerland. This aesthetic, two-sided specimen features a stacked cluster of sharp, twinned orthoclase variety adularia crystals coated with chlorite on a plate of adularia. The large twin is 6.1 cm across. Nearly pristine. Uncommonly fine quality from this noted locale. Ex. Robert Sullivan Collection and comes with his faded label.
