Microcline var. Amazonite (Manebach Twin) with Albite var. Cleavlandite Pikes Peak, El Paso Co., Colorado 4.45cm x 4.15cm x 2.17cm Ex. Larner R. Peak Collection No. 1725 Ex. Jean Hamel

Description/Interesting Notes: A fantastic, old time example of a rare manebach twin amazonite crystal from Colorado!!! This specimen consists of a sharp manebach twin amazonite crystal aesthetically capped by a cluster of lustrous, delicate blades of albite var. cleavlandite!!! The color is way better than the pics show, the faces have terrific glassy luster, and the crystal actually has marked translucence - with tiny areas that appear gemmy even!!! The crystal is undamaged and exhibits sharp manebach twinning!!! Manebach twins are quite rare and highly sought after!!! This specimen is very showy and lively in person!!! This specimen retains an old label from the Larner Peak collection and an old Hamel Minerals Label (Jean Hamel) as well as an unattributed affixed label on the underside (the Hamel label notes that it was a "gift of F. & H. Sellers")!!! The pics don't even come close to doing this gorgeous old timer justice!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!!
