Item Description
Glassy, translucent golden-yellow, tabular barite crystals, to 1.5 cm, cover the small cabinet matrix plate, jackstraw-style, on this rich and showy old-time specimen. Our thanks to German collector, Klaus Neumann, for determining that Schwabenberg in Ofen is actually an old limestone quarry in Budapest, Hungary, known for such barite specimens. From a 19th century Zurich collection. Documented old-time barites from this locality are seldom on the market and this is a good one.
