Baryte

A really fine doubly-terminated crystal of good size, with no damage, and near a floater except for the contacted bits of hematite-stained dolomite crystals. In PERSON, the color is mor eblue and the luster is higher, plus its somewhat translucent. Note that this is no fragile crystal but is rather over 2 cm thick! This is one of the better such specimens I've seen that didn't break the bank, in fact. The antique old label (dated 1901 in the bottom-left) has "Castle Eden" written on the back of it. 10 x 8 x 3 cm
