Classic specimen from this famous locality with lustrous black crystals of ferberite to 5.0 cm in size associated beautifully with glassy gem quartz crystals to 6.0 cm. Small muscovite and siderite crystal scattered throughout. Very slight chipping to a few of the quartz crystals, this still very minimal and I think the piece in good condition.
