Beautiful light blue baryte with a staining of hematite on the backside give it an almost bicolor appearance. These English barytes are historical and considered a true European classic. This particular specimen features two lovely crystals that intersect each other at an acute angle. A small mass of contrasting cream colored dolomite on the front adds some extra texture and color contrast to the front.
