Item Description

This is an attractive small cabinet size specimen of this classic material. Sharp, lustrous, attractive, tabular red hexagonal crystals of Vanadinite measuring up to 3 mm sit atop white bladed Barite matrix. It's good quality and virtually undamaged, save few tiny nicks. These specimens are common on the market, but they remain as the standard of quality for the species, and should not be discarded due to their abundance.
