Description

Historical specimen fully lined with iron rose hematite with thick tabular crystals forming a few rosettes featuring great metallic lustre. Most crystals are very well-developed, with mirror lustre, making the specimen quite hard to photograph.

This is a European classic oldtimer, from the collection Lehmann (CH), which dates back to the 80s-90s, although I suspect it being much older.
