Widely considered to be the finest New Jersey, and the finest USA stilbite specimen, this important piece was in the collection of the late Richard Kosnar for over 40 years. Many people considered it the finest specimen in his large NJ suite of classics. It is pristine, aesthetic, truly red, and complete all around! Joe Budd photos.
