Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Hubnerite, Quartz
Locality: Pasto Bueno District, Pallasca Province, Ancash Department, Peru (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: small cabinet, 6.1 x 4.9 x 4.5 cm
Hubnerite with Quartz
Aesthetically nestled in a bed of colorless, transparent quartz crystals, to 3.0 cm in length, are several parallelhubnerite crystals: dark red, with bright red, gemmy, highlights. I have never seen such thick AND gemmy hubnerites and the contrast with the stark white quartz is incredible. This is a VERY choice piece that came out in the 1980s and has long been in a private German collection. The lustre, color, sharpness of the crystals is superb. It is nice that they have REAL terminations instead of the usual fuzzy-terminated style from the locality where the terminations just sort of taper off. Here, we have lustrous, chisel-shaped faces. The largest hubnerite crystal measures over 5.0 cm in length. The color and crystal contrast, again, is just MUCH BETTER IN PERSON to the point i guarantee you won't even believe its the same piece when you hold it in good lighting, compared even to these nice pics. For my taste, its the best Peruvian hubnerite, if not the most expensive, that I have ever had the opportunity to offer.
