Item Description
A nifty stair-step cluster of highly lustrous, striated, jet-black ferberite crystals is dramatically accompanied by an impressive, sharply terminated, transparent to translucent, quartz crystal. There is minor arsenopyrite on one side. A small ding to the quartz termination and periphery/contacting are noted to both the ferberite and quartz, but this remains and impressive and showy combination from this famed locale. Ex Bob Trimingham Collection and purchased in 1987, when these were coming out.
