Stibnite is best known for the fantastical assortments of striated, steely-grey crystals that are complete with an intense metallic luster. Almost all of the display view is covered in a landscape of beautifully-formed, shining, terminated Stibnite crystals (up to 6.0 centimeters) that are complete with a desirable blue tinge, all the while crystallized on a glittering, colorless Chalcedony matrix. In slight contrast, minor druzy clusters of Chalcedony are sprinkled throughout the sprays of Stibnite. Additionally, a handful of Stibnite have a very slight bend just below their terminations, which is an interesting phenomenon that is seen in some specimens. More Information: This piece is in excellent condition with some chatter on a few crystals.
