Vanadinite (Belsky Coll.)

Item Description

Highly lustrous, striking brick-red, vanadinite prisms are aesthetically festooned atop contrasting matrix on this fine specimen from Mibladen. The sharp, hexagonal crystals are partially gemmy and reach 1.6 cm. Classic, desirable material from the late 1970s-1980s finds at this famous locale. Essentially pristine, except for barely noticeable trivial periphery wear on one side. Ex Howard Belsky Collection.
