AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Impressive large cabinet specimen of Stibnite (Antimonite, Sb₂S₃) from Italy, featuring abundant metallic crystals across a substantial natural matrix.
The specimen displays numerous elongated, bladed and prismatic Stibnite crystals with strong longitudinal striations and an attractive steel-grey metallic lustre. Several larger crystals and radiating crystal groups project prominently from the matrix, creating a striking three-dimensional appearance.
The contrast between the dark, lustrous Stibnite and the pale associated mineralisation makes this a particularly attractive display specimen. Its generous size and rich crystallisation offer interesting views from several angles.
The specimen comes from an old collection and is accompanied by its handwritten historical label marked “STIBNIT”.
Mineral: Stibnite (Antimonite)
Chemical formula: Sb₂S₃
Origin: Italy
Dimensions: approx. 19 × 11 × 10 cm
Weight: 543 g
The specimen is in very good overall collector condition. Due to the naturally delicate and brittle character of Stibnite, some crystal terminations show minor contacts, small chips and edge wear. No visible repairs have been observed. Please examine the photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the description.
A distinctive old-collection Stibnite specimen with abundant crystallisation, strong metallic lustre and excellent display presence.
The specimen will be packed with particular care to protect the delicate crystals during transport.
