Item Description
An excellent small cabinet display specimen featuring sharp, highly splendent, metallic, golden, bright modified pyritohedra of Pyrite which are associated with milky, lustrous, "stubby" crystals of Quartz. Very aesthetic and good quality all the way around. BETTER IN PERSON, as it was difficult to photograph. From the collection of Rich Kosnar, from his very first trip to Peru in the early 1970s. Valued at $600.
