This is just a KILLER Himalaya specimen - a very large, complete and perfectly formed baveno twin of feldspar! The feldspar is actually slightly TRANSLUCENT: with a surface is like porcelain not etched as is so often the case. These are very hard to find on the market - they just never came out in quantity. Note the pretty accenting cleavelandite on the side of the twin. Again, a real prize for a Himalaya fan! Ex. Chuck Houser San Diego Collection.
