Item Description

A very aesthetic 360-degree matrix spray of stout, prismatic stibnite blades with lead-gray color, satiny luster and rounded terminations from Raura. Crystals reach 5.8 cm on this impressive piece. All of the large terminations are pristine. One bruise, lower on a crystal and a few broken crystals are noted. These have very minimal impact to the very fine quality of this piece. Excellent MATRIX clusters, such as this, are uncommon and came out in the early 1980s. Rare on the market in this quality. Ex Bob Trimingham Collection. Valued at $1000
