Item Description
An extremely fine, lustrous, burnished brown, bladed, stellate hematite after marcasite floater specimen from the White Desert of Egypt. This outstanding pseudomorph is complete all-around and nearly pristine, with only one broken blade on the bottom and one on a side. A facinating crystal form with all of the radiating spearpoints! These came out a number of years ago, with none since. Ex Robert Whitmore Collection. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON
