Quartz & Pyrite Peru 9.45 x 8.66 x...
Quartz & Pyrite Peru 9.45 x 8.66 x 5.51 inches (24.00 x 22.00 x 14.00 cm) This colossal example is the best of both worlds. The top has a lovely "flower" of white well-terminated Quartz crystals, and the bottom is a large spattering of well-formed metallic Pyrite. This combination is unique and appealing. The Pyrite has a great golden hue with amazing luster. This piece can be displayed in several different orientations, all of which would be impressive. The "flower" on top of the significant plate of crystalline Pyrite makes this present extremely well. This is a major association piece from Peru. Provenance: Central Coast Collection [Scale: 1 inch, with mark at 1 cm]
