Item Description
An unusual specimen with sharp, brilliantly lustrous crystals of graphite in matrix. Unlike diamonds, graphite seldom occurs in nice, isolated crystals the collector would be most interested in. I am told this is a rather old, historic specimen. Comes with a label, from the National Museum of Bulgaria in Sophia.
