Item Description

Scintillating, gemmy, brick-red, vanadinite prisms are festooned on the sculptural CABINET plate, that includes barite. Every one of the crystals has beautiful flashes of gemmy yellow and orange fire. A fine, large and highly representative specimen from the early 1990s finds. The backlit photos highlight the crystal gemminess and gorgeous flashes of color. Deceptive, but very fine. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock and valued by him at $450, five or more years ago. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
