Item Description

It is hard to underestimate the visual impact of Crocoite when the intense reddish-orange color is combined with an absolutely superb, sub-adamantine luster, as we have here. With several Crocoite crystals up to 1 cm, and the barium phosphate Gorceixite also present, you have an excellent, highly representative small cab. #12,266 in Kay's collection.
