Description from the seller

Large Blue-Grey Baryte Crystal Rosettes — Romania
An impressive large cabinet specimen of blue-grey baryte from Romania, displaying an exceptionally rich arrangement of intergrown bladed crystals.
The specimen is almost entirely covered with hundreds of elongated, flattened baryte crystals forming overlapping radial rosettes and fan-shaped aggregates. Their delicate steel-blue to silvery-grey colour and silky-vitreous lustre create a beautiful sparkling effect under changing light.
The densely crystallised surface gives the specimen remarkable depth and a striking three-dimensional appearance. The reverse reveals the natural supporting matrix.
With its substantial size and distinctive floral crystal formations, this is a particularly attractive display piece for a mineral collection.
Locality: Romania
Dimensions: Approximately 16.5 × 13.5 × 7 cm
Weight: 1,108 g
Condition: Good overall collector condition. The main display surface is well crystallised, with minor natural contacts and possible small edge chips among the delicate crystal blades. Please examine the detailed photographs.
Provenance:old Danish Mineral Collection. The original historical label reading “BARYTE — ROMANIA” accompanies the specimen.
