Not a great sanding and polishing job but what I did manage to do was bring out the schiller a bit more in these Anorthoclase feldspars from the Stettin pluton pegmatite. The moonstone schiller effect can be even more dramatic in lower light as seen in these two images.

What a stunning color! I never knew these existed before seeing them here on RTH. Are they pretty hard to find?

I love WI Moonstone. Have a few pieces, but have done nothing with them yet. Well except hold them and look at the amazing flash.
Agree, yours have very nice flash.
There is a guy on Craigs List-Wausau, who offers it for sale now and then. States it is collected from his land. He has many other rocks for sale.
