Item Description
Gemmy, highly lustrous, brick-red, hexagonal, vanadinite prisms to 9 mm are richly clustered on the 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. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock and valued by him at $225, when he first obtained the piece.
