About this specimen
Brass-gold pyrite crowds the face of this small Spanish plate, crystal after crystal packed shoulder to shoulder until barely a gap is left. Fine parallel striations rake across every face and catch the light in narrow bands. Where the gold thins out, water-clear quartz crystals sit wedged in the interstices, small and stubby rather than columnar, and a rim of ochre rock survives along one edge.
The striations reward a loupe. Pyrite, FeS2, alternates between cube and pyritohedron faces as it grows, and the two habits interleave in fine steps that record every switch. At Mohs 6 to 6.5 the mineral is hard but brittle, and its metallic lustre dulls under damp fingers, so a dry case and dry hands keep the gold bright for decades.
The plate measures 6.1 × 2.9 × 3.6 cm and weighs 105 g, a comfortable palm size shown here between finger and thumb; no base is supplied. What you see in the photographs is the piece we will pack and send.
