Othoclase (Feldslpar goup) - $6 to $8/carat
Locality: AfricaOrthoclase

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Othoclase is difficult to find clean and in good sizes. It has eight (8) cleavage planes (ortho) and can sometimes be a challenge to cut and polish. Generally this material is not too bad to saw and cut as long as there is low vibration during sawing and fine laps are used. This does cut a very pretty stone.

Currently Available:
1 each 110.0 carats - $880.00 yellow, best cut trillion/"Port of Call" - 32mm x 32mm x 21.8mm deep
1 each 58.68.0 carats - $352.08 yellow, this is a layered piece slice for what ever shape you want. There is a couple bubbles out near the rings on one edge - 19.3mm x 35.7mm x 9.2mm deep
1 each 48.62 carats - $388.96 yellow, this is a layered piece slice for what ever shape you want - 18.2mm x 24.6mm x 12.4mm deep
