Description
A V-like configuration of two main prismatic crystals of the variety Barium-rich Celestine, also known under the synonym of Barian Celestine. The crystals measure to 11 cm and form opaque, creamy-white to gemmy light brown prisms. The two main crystals have many smaller crystals branching out at various points along their length and all crystals display a semi-matt, greasy lustre. This is an impressive cabinet specimen from Tarnobrzeg in south-eastern Poland. Under LWUV the entire specimen fluoresces bright white with creamy patches while in SWUV becomes a pale, ghostly greyish white.
