Item Description

Stunning, highly unusual cluster of Vanadinites from Bou Almaden in Mibladen. The rich, red color and high luster are classic, but the triangular shape of the cluster is what is so unusual and so interesting. For all the world, this looks like it could be the shield on the uniform of some super hero (Captain Mibladen, maybe?). Tremendously aesthetic, this is a quality thumbnail in all regards, and was #2810 in Kay's collection.
