Item Description

A 2.5 cm, mirror-bright, very sharp, hematite crystal is the focal point of this sculptural large piece from the famous Wessels Mine. A large adjacent field of a second generation of smaller interpenetrant hematite twins is an uncommon and excellent compliment. The matrix wedge is massive hematite. One edge with periphery wear to the large crystal is a modest detraction. Ex Charlie Key dealer stock.
