Ilvaite with Quartz

Unknown Owner
Prismatic crystals of Ilvaite with very well developed faces and edges and doubly terminated, implanted on a Quartz crystal with very notable polycrystalline growths. The main crystal measures 4.2 cm x 2.3 cm. An excellent sample of the progressively scarce Chinese Ilvaites. Very nice architecture. In excellent condition.
