Barite on Orpiment From the El'brusskiy Mine
About the Item
El'brusskiy mine, Elbrus Mt, Kabardino-Balkarian Republic, Northern Caucasus Region, Russia
This large, stunningly rich orange orpiment specimen with contrasting yellow around the edges comes on a 4"W x 4"D x 1/2"H lucite base for perfect display and brings a sparkling luster. A large, gorgeously clear and gemmy barite crystal accents the lower right of the piece for extra visual fascination. Orpiment – historically used medicinally and as a pigment for painting – is a rare compound of sulfur and arsenic often found in association with realgar, and is prized by collectors for its rich hues and its crystal formations.

Barite from Cumberland, England
Located in New York, NY
Cumberland, England
A historic old classic, these barites are immediately recognizable as survivors from England's mining heyday in the 1800s. An intact, tabular, doubly terminated, grayish blue barite crystal in an impressive spray of an incredible barite cluster is on matrix and is of the finest grade. Clusters of this magnitude and quality are incredibly rare. A most remarkable feature is the proximity of the clusters to each other. They amass into one stunningly large piece rather than spaced small clusters. This is a very three-dimensional and sculptural specimen and has a wide rage of presentation. The crystals here...
