Item Description

Relatively big, blocky and beaudacious Pyrite cluster from one of the top Peruvian localities. Crystals on this specimen have bright metallic luster with distinct and attractive striations on the cube faces and bevels on the edges that add to their beauty. Faces with the striations have a luminous satiny luster whereas the modified bevels have a brilliant, mirror-like luster to add texture and intricacy to the piece. The largest crystal measures 3.1 cm across. There are at least eight crystals that comprise the main cluster and then there is a small mounded group of flashing little Pyrite crystals front and center on the piece for added aesthetics.
