Item Description
A rare old American pyrite from the Mullane Collection. Three, mirror-bright, brassy, pyrite cubes are aesthetically embedded in the chlorite schist matrix of this old Vermont specimen. The cubes are up to 1.4 cm and the trivial bit of edge wear to each of them is certainly within tolerance, considered their age. Ex Dennis Mullane Collection and comes with a faded Burminco label dating to the 1950s or 60s.
