Pezinok in the Bratislava Region, Slovakia has produced arguably the world's finest specimens of antimony oxysulphide - Kermesite. This large miniature specimen displays several fan-like sprays of red acicular Kermesite within a 1.5 cm wide linear cavity along one side of the specimen. The individual sprays reach about 8 mm in length. A very nice example of this rare species which displays well.
