Item Description
Gorgeous, glassy, golden-amber tipped barite crystals grade downward to colorless on this very fine cluster from a classic Sardinian locale. The colorful terminations have a striking, gem-like look! The very stout crystal has a textbook chisel termination and is a 5.0 cm wide. It is complete all-around and very nearly pristine, with only the most trivial of edgewear. The scattered complex, frosted calcite rhombs are a nfity accent. Ex Schlichter Collection.
