Description:If you can get past the fact that they are "just" pyrites, you have to admit that these PERFECT cubes on matrix from Spain are amongst the most striking crystals in the mineral kingdom. Non-mineral people usually cannot believe that they form naturally, in fact! Here are two, mirror-bright, sculpturally intergrown cubes that look like modern art. Very trivial edge wear and one out-of-sight lower corner is dinged. A striking-looking specimen! Ex Harold Urish Collection.
