Item Description
A striking, 2.7 cm, lustrous, brassy, intergrown pyrite crystal ball is aesthetically set on a plate of glassy quartz crystals with a bit of accenting iron oxide stain 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.
