Item Description

Stout, prismatic, barite crystals richly and attractively cover the curved crust on this showy and excellent specimen from the classic locale in Sardinia. The crystals, to 3.3 cm, are very glassy, gemmy, have amber color and textbook chisel terminations. Just a few gently bruised terminations and edges are noted. Pretty 360-degree Silius barite. Ghostly white fluorescence. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock.
