Item Description
A striking and sculptural, floater barite "rose" from Oklahoma. These classic Oklahoma specimens formed in the Permian-aged Garber Sandstone and the sand grains are included in the barite crystal structure. Nearly pristine, with only a bit of edge wear along one "petal" on one side. The two sides look distinctively different! Choice and aesthetic material.
