Description

Ilvaite is remarkable size and quality. The completely free-standing main crystal is 40 mm tall, sharp terminated and shows excellent luster. All the smaller crystals on matrix are at same high quality - the whole piece is sparkling! I had a lot of Russian minerals, but rarely saw Ilvaite in this dimension in union with this quality. Should be high ranked for locality and qualiy!
