Item Description

A great classic association specimen featuring sharp, lustrous, gemmy, thick, bladed crystals of Barite measuring up to 3.0 cm which are associated with beautiful silvery, prismatic Stibnite crystals measuring up to 3.4 cm. Very fine quality and HARD to photograph, but BETTER IN PERSON. Don't miss out on this one, they only came out for a short time in the early 1990s. A fine, aesthetic and eye-catching specimen rarely seen anymore on the market. The piece comes from the inventory of Herb Obodda, though originally labeled as coming from Kazakhstan.
