Item Description

A classic specimen of these well-known but now fairly hard to find Barytes from the Clarashall Mine in Germany featuring a coverage of attractive, sharp, lustrous, gemmy, colorless blades measuring up to 1.7 cm on matrix. There is a slight reddish color to the crystals which is due to micro Cinnabar inclusions. The piece is in very good shape, but there is some minor chipping on some of the Barytes, so it's not completely pristine. The piece comes with an old Rocksmiths label.
