Stibnite (classic locale) Paul Zerfass Coll.

Item Description

An impressive and sculptural large specimen of stibnite "porcupine quills" from the famous Herja Mine. Striking radial sprays of broad, splendent, dark metallic-gray, stibnite blades in a very dense pattern form a dramatic specimen on this showy and excellent combination example from the famous Herja Mine. Patches of gray dolomite or calcite crystals on the back are a nice and typical accessory. Complete all-around and in great shape, for such incredible crystal density, with very few broken crystals. A very fine and classic 360-degree example from the 1980s finds from the Paul Zerfass Collection # 160. Valued at $1250-1500 for size and quality.
