Pyrites are common from Peru, but NOT LIKE THIS! Not only are the crystals incredibly mirror-bright and beautifully striated, but they have formed in two interconnected knobs, to form an exquisitely sculptural specimen. This is truly one of the most spectacular pyrites I have ever seen and is MUCH BETTER in person. Pics cannot convey a piece so 3-dimensional and lustrous! 11.5 x 6.6 x 6.2 cm
