Item Description

Starburst-like clusters of gemmy, honey-amber, barite spearpoints attached to a bit of sulfur form an extremely aesthetic specimen from the famous Machow Mine of Poland. Very nearly pristine, with only a couple of bruised crystals on the periphery. Discrete barite crystals of this gemmy quality are very uncommon and desirable from this famous sulfur mine. Ex Jaime Bird Collection. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
