Item Description
A dramatic and aesthetic small cabinet cluster of two intergrown stibnite crystal clusters from Raura. The bladed crystals have a satiny luster, lead-gray color and somewhat rounded terminations. Specimens of this quality were never abundant and are rarely seen for sale. Material of this fine quality came from early 1980s finds. Complete all-around and pristine. Every turn presents a different perspective to this sculptural piece. valued $400
