Description
This luminous Barite crystal cluster displays an elegant network of translucent, bladed crystals radiating outward from a rugged natural matrix. The soft silvery-champagne tones catch and reflect light beautifully, giving the specimen a luminous, almost ethereal presence. Each blade formed in delicate layers, creating a naturally sculptural crystal architecture that feels both refined and assertive.
This Barite showcases the stunning crystal habit and structural complexity that make the mineral so beloved among collectors.
Dimensions & Weight
Measurement: 5” x 4” x 3”
Weight: 609g
Collector’s Notes
Fine Barite specimens are prized for their distinctive crystal habit, weight, and luster. This piece stands out for its dense crystal coverage, sharp crystal definition, and balanced composition. The way the blades overlap and fan outward creates exceptional visual depth — a hallmark of high-quality Barite from classic hydrothermal environments.
Highlights
Well-formed bladed Barite crystal growth
Bright natural luster and translucency
Dense crystal coverage across the matrix
No repairs, stabilization, or enhancements
Strong cabinet and display appeal
Metaphysical Properties
Barite is believed to support clarity, inner vision, and higher awareness. Many practitioners use Barite to enhance spiritual insight, aid dream recall, and help organize scattered thoughts. Its structured crystal habit is thought to bring mental order and emotional grounding while still encouraging expansion of consciousness.
Mineralogy
Barite (BaSO₄) is a barium sulfate mineral known for its heavy weight, high specific gravity, and tabular to bladed crystal habit. These crystals formed as mineral-rich hydrothermal fluids cooled and deposited layers of barium sulfate, building the intricate bladed formations seen in this specimen.
