About this specimen
Gunmetal blades cross the face of this Lengshuijiang plate at every angle, the largest spray nearly as wide as the piece itself and fanning open like a struck chord. Each blade is grooved with the deep vertical striations only stibnite draws, and each takes a hard metallic glint on its wider faces. Beneath them lies a pale bed of tabular barite and small colourless quartz, with olive-yellow patches marking where the sulphide has begun to alter.
Lengshuijiang sits in the antimony belt of central Hunan, source of the finest stibnite (Sb2S3) most collectors will ever handle, and also of one of the most delicate minerals they will own. At Mohs 2 it is softer than a fingernail and bends or snaps under almost no pressure. Keep it dry, keep it out of direct sun, and never wash it — water dulls that mirror finish for good.
9.7 × 5.6 × 4.6 cm, 290 g, supplied without a stand. Photographed loose in the hand for scale: this plate and no substitute.
