The Olshanskyite from the Shijiangshan Mine was previously well-known for its quality, largely overtaking the best known to date for the species. But a very recent find has raised the roof of quality to unforeseen levels. From this new find we had the opportunity to select from the best samples found. They are aggregates with crystals, some of them very elongated and very well differentiated, clear, colorless and extraordinarily bright, with very sharp crystalline forms. The great quality of the pieces offered here, due their neat shape, the beauty of the aggregates and the crystal size, make them deserving to be in the best private and museum collections. The specimen has been published in the book 'China II', by Berthold Ottens, on page 249
