Description

Fine and well-sized reddish baryte specimen from an old German collection. What makes this piece stand out from other red Lavrion barytes we have seen, is the fact there is contrasting with the dark base they have grown on. We usually see such specimen without any contrast so this makes the piece nicer and much more rare!
