{"product_id":"baryte-91","title":"BARYTE","description":"The Teplice District in the Ústí nad Labem Region, Czechia has been famous for amber coloured Baryte crystals for well over a century, with known examples sold in the late 1800s by the German dealers Krantz. They came from Lahošť at Duchcov where a quarry was later developed and where specimens have been found even within this current century, but the crystals are generally quite small and not usually so richly coloured. This miniature-sized specimen comes from the superb systematic collection assembled by the brothers Martin and Michael Günther (1951-2007 \u0026amp; 1956-2021) and has the feel of being very old. The glossy, colour-zoned deep amber-coloured tabular Baryte crystals reach up to 1.8 cm on edge and form a very rich aggregate upon a small piece of rock matrix. There is some age-related general wear to the Baryte crystals, but this is a not often seen old-timer from this classic Czech occurrence.","brand":"Crystal Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57781217395023,"sku":"CC28705","price":259.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1011\/3748\/2063\/files\/CC28705_39dcd522-6c23-4be4-8b3c-5836552eaf58.jpg?v=1783982468","url":"https:\/\/crystalclassics.co.uk\/products\/baryte-91","provider":"Crystal Classics UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
