Item Description

Strontianite specimens from the Oberdorf area of Austria are renowned for their quality and this is an fine representative example. Such nicely colored pieces with real form, and not just thin plates, are highly desired and fetch good prices in Europe at the shows there, in particular. The tiered, spikey, crystal clusters, with fine tan color, translucence and luster, look like jagged tan icicles.
