Ferberite and Quartz, with Muscovite

Item Description

Ferberites from the famous Yaogangxian Mine in China rank amont the world's best, and this aesthetic and very showy combination piece simply exudes coolness. The bladed and lustrous Ferberites are intergrown with gemmy to translucent Quartz crystals, and it looks for all the world like the knife-edge terminations simply allowed the crystals to penetrate the Quartz, that's how sharply formed the Ferberites are! To add interest, the Ferberites have a preferential coating of golden Muscovite. To me, these Ferberite crystals are excellent for form and quality, and the interesting and dramatic aesthetics make this very worthwhile. Better in person, even.
