Large botryoidal Hematite

Item Description

This striking and sculptural large two-sided botryoidal hematite specimen resembles classic English pieces from the 1800s. But it is from Morocco. Splendent, large grayish-brown botryoids comprise this impressive specimen. It is more lustrous than most of the English hematites (even accounting for the fact that, as with all of these, one must assume they are lightly buffed in any case). This is wonderful recent material to the market. If this WERE English, and it would be easy to simply "say it was so," the price should be over $1000. 1221 grams or 2.7 pounds mass.
