Item Description

Striking, rust-red, iron oxide-coated, quartz points to 6.0 cm project dramatically outward from the large matrix plate, that includes numerous rosettes of matte-finish hematite blades. An impressive, 360-degree specimen, even with only a few broken quartz crystals and periphery wear. Fairly common, 10-13 years ago, you don't see many of these around today. This is a fine large example.
