Item Description
Sharp, water-clear, tabular, golden-amber, barite blades to 3.2 cm in parallel-growth and adroitly set on two shards of contrasting matrix form a showy specimen from recent finds in Peru. The fine piece displays beautifully from either side. Nearly pristine, the large crystal has minute edgewear on one side. Excellent material that looks like Meikle Mine barite.
