Item Description
Two, splendent, sharp, magnetite octahedrons are jauntily set on green schist matrix on this showy and uncommon material from Brazil. The crystals have textbook crystal form and reach 1.5 cm. Very nearly pristine, one crystal has super-trivial, barely noticeable termination wear. A classic and seldom available magnetite specimen from this locale.
