AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This top-quality barite on fluorite from the Xiefang Mine (Jiangxi, China) is a textbook collector’s specimen that immediately captivates with its aesthetics and outstanding crystal quality.
The specimen is dominated by robust, tabular barite crystals in attractive honey-yellow to golden hues. The crystals display a strong vitreous to pearly luster, are sharp and well terminated, and form a rich, three-dimensional aggregate with excellent depth. In places, a subtle transparency is visible, adding elegance and vitality to the piece.
The matrix consists of fluorite, which beautifully contrasts with the warm-toned barite and enhances both its color and crystal form. The combination of these two minerals is not only highly aesthetic but also characteristic of the Xiefang locality, which is renowned worldwide for the quality and size of its barite crystals.
This specimen is ideal both for advanced collectors and as a premium display piece, where it will immediately draw attention. It is a no-compromise example that fully meets the highest standards of quality, aesthetics, and locality significance.
