Item Description

Sparkly florets of tiny second generation stibnite crystals cover this impressive, rich large undulating, mounded 360-degree specimen from the historic mines at Baiut. The broken base reveals, that the florets cover a classic radial spray of splendent larger metallic-gray stibnite blades. The white barite is a typical and striking contrasting accessory. Complete all-around and essentially pristine. This is a RARE style and exceptional stibnite combination from this locale. Choice material from the Ted Bartels Collection.
