Item Description
An impressive and very rich large vanadinite specimen from a NEW January, 2019 find at Mibladen! Several generations and sizes of classic variable red to orange hexagonal prisms are festooned on this striking, colorful piece. Larger crystals across the skyline and on the left side dramatically dominate. These highly lustrous, translucent, mostly brick-red crystals reach 1.5 cm and some crystals have flashes of yellow-orange fire, adding pizzazz. Some crystal bruising is noted on the upper left, but overall has minimal impact to the overall richness and size of this significant piece from a brand NEW FIND. Here's your chance to obtain a large and rich vanadinite at a reasonable price point. Valued at $1500-2000. 13.0 pounds or 5.9 kilos mass.
