Item Description

The glassy, snow-white, 3-dimensional quartz crystal matrix is strikingly highlighted by a 2.7 cm, lustrous, brassy, intergrown pyrite crystal ball on this excellent and very showy specimen from recent finds at the Fengjiashan Mine, China. This is an unusual Chinese pyrite form, and is really nifty.
