This is one of the most beautiful “iron roses” and Quartz specimens that I’ve seen, it’s small but the aesthetics are completely off the charts!!  A group of well-formed Hematite var. Specularite “flowers” formed as base, hosting several perfectly terminated Quartz points.  The Specularite exhibit a metallic red-brown color and is exceedingly sparkly, outstanding!  The Quartz crystal points are nicely accented by Hematite tinting.  The striking formation of the “iron roses” and the supreme condition make this a top quality small cabinet specimen.  Comes with a high quality acrylic display box.
