Item Description
A stunning specimen with a machined-looking pyrite crystal, 2.7 cm across, perched smartly in the nest of surrounding quartz points. The contrast is simply breathtaking. This is from a famous find, of about 7-8 years ago now, and produced a very limited number of specimens. The crystal is protected as it sits there, with no damage at all. There is no sense saying more - the photos and video describe it so nicely. But we will add that amidst the thousands (tens of thousands?) of Peruvian pyrite specimens out there, here is something unique and distinct. It is valued highly, for that reason.
