Description

Excellent hematite pseudohexagonal crystal perfectly perched on top of pale metamorphic matrix. This is a rose made of tens of rather thick individual crystals, with great metal lustre and perfect rims. The matrix is dusted with over a dozen of hematite blades, inferring to the specimen a nice color contrast as well.

A nice oldtimer display specimen from Furka pass. It comes from the former collection Lehmann (CH) and it dates back to the 80s.
