Item Description
Sharp, mirror-bright, brass-yellow, pyrite pyritohedrons on a sculptural, 3-dimensional knob make for a very showy and excellent specimen from this historic locale. Some of the pyrites are well-striated and the scattered quartz needles on the fringe are a nice accent. The periphery wear in one spot is noted, but is a very minimal detraction. Classic, old-time and desirable Butte material from the Mullane Collection.
