Item Description
Lustrous, glassy, bi-colored, tabular, barite crystals are included with sparkly pyrite microcrystals on this showy, excellent and unusual specimen from the famous mines at Pribram. The bodies of the barite crystals are rose-pink and the terminations are a very pleasing golden-amber. A striking contrast and the jackstraw form of the barite blades adds character. Ex Josef Vajdak Collection, a noted Pribram specialist.
