Barite (Trimingham Coll.)

Item Description

Impressive, stout, chisel-shaped barite crystals cover this excellent large 3-dimensional plate from this well-known Spanish locale. The highly lustrous, translucent barites, to about 3.0 cm, range from bone-white to colorlesss. The modest periphery wear is certainly a very minimal detraction to this choice specimen having multiple display possibilities. Ex Bob Trimingham Collection and from the Howard Beckman Collection (circa 1970s), according to his label.
