About this specimen

Yunnan pyrite at 5.5 cm; a small cabinet single crystal. A single pyrite crystal in bright brass, heavy for its size, with fine parallel striations ruling each face in a different direction — the mark of a well-grown cube.

Pyrite is the most collected metallic mineral, and the best pieces combine sharp form with a lustre that has not dulled; store it dry to keep it that way.

Yunnan is China's most mineralogically diverse province, source of the pyromorphite, azurite and blue aragonite that have become collector favourites.

The piece is small cabinet in size, 5.5 × 4.1 × 3.7 cm (2.17 × 1.61 × 1.46 in) and 193 g (6.8 oz). The specimen is otherwise sold in the condition shown.

Every specimen here is photographed and catalogued individually before listing.
