Item Description

Jackstraw clusters of very glassy, translucent, light grayish-blue baryte blades accented with iron oxides form an impressive and excellent large plate from this noted locale. The compound blades reach about 4.0 cm. Complete all-around and nearly pristine. A small bit of bruising is noted to a blade in the central interior. The periphery wear is amazingly negligible on this very fine 360-degree piece. The quality and style of the crystals in certainly above average for the locale. Choice material from the Herb Obodda dealer stock. Valued by Herb at $750 more than six years ago. Today $800-1000.
