Item Description
Imposing and impressive, this is one of the larger Hematite crystals from Wessels that we have had to offer, of this rare habit (pseudo-scalenohedral). The main crystal is a full 4 cm tall, and it sits on top of two smaller Hematites. The Hematites are in excellent condition, and the luster ranges from mirror-like to etched but shiny. This is an excellent miniature, as the pics attest to. valued $750-900
