Mineral background

Feldspar is best approached as a collector mineral rather than a generic decorative crystal. The important details are the confirmed mineral identity, locality, crystal habit, associations on the matrix and the condition shown in close photographs.

How to compare Feldspar specimens

Look for white, cream, pink or blue-grey crystals and cleavages. A strong specimen normally shows its main crystal habit clearly from more than one angle.

Value notes

Better value comes from named varieties, crystal form and locality.

Care and handling

Avoid hard knocks along cleavage.
