Item Description

Large, imposing specimen consisting of both massive Stibnite as well as about one hundred well-articulated Stibnite crystals. The Stibnites have good to excellent luster, fine striations, and some even have a partially curved habit, which always adds to the quality of a Stibnite. Many of the Stibnite crystals exceed 2 cm in length. An impessive, aesthetic piece that was formerly in the collection of Professor Johann Zenz. Last priced at $1500 to Dr. Bob Byers, a stibnite specialist in California.
