Item Description
An OLD-TIME, classic, CABINET combination specimen from the famous mines of Frizington, England. Lustrous, translucent, bluish-greenish-grayish tabular barite crystals to 7.0 cm richly and attractively cover both sides of this piece. A complimentary field of lustrous, coloress calcite crystals is a nice accent. This CLASSIC piece is in fine condition for such a large and rich specimen. There is only one broken crystal and the minor periphery wear is certainly not a detraction. Certainly around 100 years old. Ex Mullane Collection. Value??
