A textbook grouping of sharp lustrous ilvaite crystals from Dal’negorsk. Before the Chinese finds redefined the standard for ilvaite, these Russian examples were the world’s best. Even still, examples such as this rival the top for luster and form. A very nice specimen with minor damage on the bottom and right crystal, as seen. Self stands as seen.
