A floater crystal of adularia from the Swiss Alps. It has lustrous faces and an unusual "bent" form, with subtle stepping on the side faces. There is an interesting zeolite association of micro stilbites and heulandites here. Alpine adularias (also known as "moonstone") are considered the best in the world.
