Item Description

A large, sharp, cubic, lustrous, black Bixbyite crystal with smaller Bixbyites have formed into an attractive thumbnail group. The main crystal is not 100% complete, but it's large for the species in general, not just the locality. These specimens are seldom seen from N'Chwaning. This attractive example of the species is a lovely display quality thumbnail from South Africa.
