Vanadinite

Item Description

Blocky, hexagonal, vanadinite prisms form a sculptural and showy two-sided rib from recent finds at Mibladen. This time, the striking "A" side features the preferentially iron oxide-coated crystals. The "B"side has the uncoated, lustrous, translucent, brick-red crystals with flashes of yellow-orange gemminess. The "A" side is very nearly pristine, with only two tiny spots of crystal edge wear. The "B" side has broken and dinged crystals, although the the striking primary cluster is pristine. Showy, uncommon and highly representative material of this varietal from Mibladen.
