Item Description

Sharp, glassy, transparent to translucent, amber barite crystals to 3.0 cm densely cover this very fine plate from a classic locale in Sardinia. The large primary crystals are pristine and the few broken and bruised crystals scattered about are certainly a modest detraction. This showy piece has many display views! Ex Robert Whitmore Collection. Valued at $750-1000.
