American barite 2.073ct loose stone

Sale price¥18,800

Barite comes in a wide variety of colors, including colorless, white, yellow, brown, red, blue, and green. Its Japanese name is "barite" because it is mainly composed of barium, a heavy element, and because it has the property of crystallizing. There are several types of barium, but this is barium sulfate, the same as the barium you drink during a gastroscopy. It's a strange feeling to think that something so familiar has something in common with us that has become a gemstone. It is a rare stone that is rarely cut due to its low hardness. This is a 2.073ct loose barite from the United States that I purchased in Tucson, USA.
