Item Description

Absolutely scintillating, gemmy, burnt-orange, tabular vanadinite prisms are dramatically scattered on the very sculptural matrix of starkly contrasting, intergrown parallel-growth clusters of bone-white baryte blades. The vannies reach 5 mm. This is an extremely fine and aesthetic combination example from the famous finds of the early 2000s. Nearly pristine, with only gentle bruising to the baryte blades on the upper right, which certainly has only trivial impact to the overall outstanding quality. Most classic Mibladen combination material. Valued at $1450. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
