Item Description
Gemmy, highly lustrous, brick-red, hexagonal, vanadinite prisms to 9 mm are very aesthetically clustered on the sliver of contrasting barite matrix from the major early 1990s finds. ALL of the crystals have striking flashes of gemmy, yellew-orange fire and are definitely in the top echelon of crystal gemminess for the find. Classic and excellent combination material. The large crystal is supremely set on the crest of the piece.
