Item Description
A striking and excellent plate richly covered with large isolated vanadinite crystals from recent finds at Mibladen. Blocky to tabular, very highly lustrous, brick-red prisms have gorgeous zones of orange-yellow gemminess and striking skeletal features. The hexagonal crystals reach 1.4 cm. This is a very fine, more unique style of Mibladen vanadinite, that you usually see. Pristine, this outstanding piece displays fabulously from either direction. The richness and quality of the crystals and crystal isolation makes this an exceptional piece. Valued at $1250-1500.
