Item Description

Moroccan Vanadinites simply are the finest examples of the species extant. The best pieces still command a premium on the market, even though specimens are still being found to this day. This piece features dozens of excellent orange-red sharp, sparkling, tabular, hexagonal crystals on bladed white Barite. The largest Vanadinite measures about 1 mm across. A good quality Vanadinite miniature from this most famous of localities.
